Minneapolis Man Booked in Cass County Fleeing Case

Cass County (trfnews.i234.me) — A Minneapolis man was booked Sunday evening following an alleged non-vehicle fleeing offense.

The Cass County in-custody report identifies the man as David Arthur Larose, 39, of Minneapolis. The report lists his booking time as 7:04 p.m. on August 16, 2026.

Larose was listed on one charge under Minnesota Statute 609.487, subdivision 6. The booking description says the allegation involves fleeing a peace officer by means other than a motor vehicle.

The public jail record does not give details about what led to the arrest. It does not describe where the alleged conduct happened. The record also does not identify any injuries or property damage.

What Minnesota Law Says

Minnesota Statute 609.487 covers several forms of fleeing a peace officer. Subdivision 6 applies to alleged fleeing that does not involve a motor vehicle.

The statute includes running, hiding, or other efforts to evade an officer. The action must be connected to avoiding arrest, detention, or investigation. It can also involve efforts to conceal or destroy possible evidence.

The officer must be acting in the lawful discharge of official duties. The statute currently classifies a subdivision 6 offense as a misdemeanor.

Those legal points describe the statute generally. They are not findings about Larose or the facts of his case.

Booking Information Remains Limited

The Cass County report lists Larose as an adult arrest. It also says he was not housed at the Itasca County Jail.

No additional charges were listed for Larose in the report reviewed Monday. The booking record does not show a final court result.

Readers can review the Cass County Detention Center page for jail information. The county also posts an in-custody report for public viewing.

The Minnesota Revisor of Statutes provides the full text of Section 609.487 online. Court filings, if available later, may provide more detail about the allegation.

An arrest or booking does not establish guilt. Criminal allegations must be resolved through the court process.
