Mahnomen County (trfnews.i234.me) — Daniel Glen Reamer, 45, faces a felony methamphetamine possession charge.
The charge follows an early morning call near railroad tracks in rural Mahnomen County on May 23, 2026.
A criminal complaint says Reamer was found yelling near the tracks and later taken to a hospital.
A state lab later identified a substance found on him as methamphetamine, according to the complaint.
Early Morning Call Near Railroad Tracks
At about 3:12 a.m., an officer responded to a report of a man yelling.
Near 140th Avenue, the officer met Ronald Habedank, who stood by the road with a flashlight.
Habedank said the shouting had awakened him during the night.
He told the officer he had seen a man lying on railroad tracks.
Habedank guided the officer through a wooded area and toward the rail line.
They continued about 75 yards south and found a man lying beside the tracks.
Investigators later identified the man as Reamer.
The complaint says Reamer kept yelling and did not answer questions from the officer.
Those questions concerned his name, whether he needed help, and whether he could walk.
The officer suspected possible drug use, but the complaint does not report an impairment test.
Hospital Visit and Lab Results
Additional officers and emergency medical workers arrived at the scene.
With their help, Reamer got to his feet.
Officers reported seeing two light bulbs on the ground where he had been sitting.
The complaint notes that light bulbs can be used to consume illegal drugs.
Reamer was then taken by ambulance to Mahnomen Health Center for medical care.
Hospital staff found a Wisconsin identification card in his pocket, the complaint states.
Staff also located a small bag containing a clear, crystal-like substance on his person.
The bag was sent to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension for testing.
In a report dated June 30, 2026, the agency identified the substance as methamphetamine.
The material weighed 0.717 grams, according to the lab report cited by prosecutors.
Felony Charge and Prior Convictions
Reamer is charged with fifth-degree controlled substance possession in Mahnomen County District Court.
The court file is 44-CR-26-478, and the complaint lists the offense as a felony.
Under Minnesota Statute 152.025, the charge can carry up to five years in prison.
A conviction can also bring a fine of up to $10,000, or both penalties.
Those are maximum penalties, not a sentence in this case.
The complaint also cites previous drug convictions.
Reamer was convicted of third-degree drug possession in a school zone on June 18, 2026.
That Minnesota conviction involved a separate incident dated March 26, 2026.
Prosecutors also listed earlier felony methamphetamine possession convictions from Pierce and Eau Claire counties in Wisconsin.
Court Information
The Mahnomen County document is titled a criminal complaint and summons.
It does not list a hearing date or a decision on this new charge.
Readers can check Minnesota Court Records Online using court file number 44-CR-26-478.
