Bemidji Booking Lists Felony Drug DWI Charge

Beltrami County (trfnews.i234.me) — Cheyenne Lightfeather was booked into the Beltrami County Jail on July 26, 2026.

The jail record lists a felony driving while impaired charge. It alleges a vehicle was operated with a Schedule I or II drug present.

The listed law excludes cannabis and hemp products from that specific charge. The charge appears under Minnesota Statute 169A.20, subdivision 1(7).

Lightfeather also faces a misdemeanor charge involving false identifying information. The record cites Minnesota Statute 609.506, subdivision 1.

That law covers an alleged false name, birth date, or identification card. The allegation must still be proven in court.
