Three suspects have been charged after allegedly collaborating in a series of burglaries, including at a golf course in Carver County last fall.
The initial charges stem from a burglary on Oct. 2, 2025, at a golf course in Dahlgren Township, in which thousands in cash was stolen.
Prosecutors allege 61-year-old James Irving Dale, of Anoka, 33-year-old Shaun William Blankenship, of Minneapolis, and 33-year-old Tara Renaye Molnau, of Norwood Young America, were all tied to additional burglaries in the area.
According to the criminal complaints filed this week, Carver County sheriff’s deputies were called Oct. 2 after employees discovered signs of a break-in at the golf course. Investigators reported finding open cabinets and drawers inside a back office along with money bags scattered across desks and a lockbox left behind. Employees told deputies more than $4,000 in cash was missing from the business.
