Crookston: Robert Mundt Booked on Assault Allegation

CROOKSTON, Minn. (trfnews.i234.me) — Robert Lee Mundt, 47, appears in an October 27, 2026, Polk County jail booking listing.

The entry names a misdemeanor fifth-degree assault allegation involving actual bodily harm or an attempt to inflict bodily harm.

Mundt’s date of birth is listed as October 1, 1979. The entry cites Minnesota Statute 609.224, subdivision 1(2).

The record does not identify where the alleged incident happened. Crookston is the jail’s location, not a verified assault location.

What the Fifth-Degree Assault Law Covers

Under Minnesota Statute 609.224, fifth-degree assault includes intentionally causing bodily harm or attempting to cause it.

The cited provision is classified as a misdemeanor. It does not require a documented injury if an attempt is alleged.

Minnesota law defines bodily harm as physical pain, injury, illness, or an impairment of a person’s physical condition.

Under Minnesota law, a misdemeanor can carry up to 90 days in jail, a $1,000 fine, or both.

Those are maximum statutory penalties, not a sentence in Mundt’s case.

The booking entry does not say whether anyone was injured. It also does not describe an alleged confrontation or identify another person.

No police narrative or sworn complaint was included in the information supplied for this report.

The Northwest Regional Corrections Center is located at 816 Marin Avenue in Crookston, Minnesota.

Tri-County Community Corrections operates the regional jail for Polk, Norman, and Red Lake counties.

The supplied listing gives October 27 as Mundt’s booking date. It does not identify the arresting agency.

It also provides no arrest location, bond amount, court case number, or upcoming hearing date.

Tri-County Community Corrections publishes an official inmate roster, which is normally updated weekday mornings.

Roster details can change after hearings, release decisions, or transfers. A past booking does not confirm that someone remains jailed.

The booking description alone does not confirm that prosecutors filed a formal criminal complaint.

Additional court records may identify the alleged incident date, any filed charges, and scheduled proceedings.

Readers can check available case information through Minnesota Court Records Online.

The court system limits online name searches for pending criminal cases without a conviction.

Searching by case number may reveal information that a name search cannot display.

A jail listing records an allegation; it does not establish guilt. Mundt is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.

TRF News will report more details if reliable court or law enforcement records become available.
