A burglary suspect crashed a pickup into a tree while fleeing deputies, who recovered a stolen rifle and suspected methamphetamine, according to charges. The pursuit followed a reported garage break-in in rural Olmsted County around 6:57 a.m. Sept. 18.

Aaron Michael Anderson, 46, of Hayfield, faces nine charges in Olmsted County District Court. Six are felonies: third-degree burglary, fleeing police in a motor vehicle, second-degree drug possession involving a firearm, prohibited firearm possession, theft and receiving stolen property.

The homeowner supplied trail-camera photographs showing two men and a woman entering her detached garage and loading property into a Chevrolet Silverado, according to the criminal complaint. A deputy later spotted the pickup pulling a blue trailer.
