Juan Manuel Rosas faces two felony charges: possessing a firearm or ammunition after a conviction for a crime of violence, and fleeing a peace officer on foot.

According to the complaint, members of the Hennepin County Auto Theft Task Force were monitoring Rosas on Thursday, September 17, 2026, because he had two active warrants for his arrest in Hennepin County. Officers found him near 29th Avenue North and Colfax Avenue North in Minneapolis, close to a confirmed stolen vehicle.
