Grand Forks County<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Court records describe a brief foot chase in Grand Forks.<\/p>\n

Robert Chandler Wood, of Grand Forks, now faces new charges in the case.<\/p>\n

What investigators allege<\/h2>\n

Court records say deputies tried to arrest Wood on four outstanding warrants.<\/p>\n

Deputies tried to arrest him on February 19 near the Winterland Apartments in Grand Forks.<\/p>\n

Investigators say Wood ran from the area on foot.<\/p>\n

A nearby resident told deputies Wood tried to force his way into her apartment.<\/p>\n

She said he did it to avoid being arrested.<\/p>\n

She said she used her full body weight to keep the door shut.<\/p>\n

She told deputies Wood left after she refused to let him inside.<\/p>\n

A deputy caught up with Wood soon after and took him into custody, the records say.<\/p>\n

Charges filed<\/h2>\n

Wood is now charged with felony attempted criminal trespass.<\/p>\n

He is also charged with misdemeanor refusal to halt.<\/p>\n

The new charges were filed alongside the four existing warrants, the records say.<\/p>\n

Attempted criminal trespass means prosecutors allege someone tried to enter without permission.<\/p>\n

Refusal to halt generally means a person did not stop when ordered by law enforcement.<\/p>\n

Warrants are court orders that allow an arrest when a judge authorizes it.<\/p>\n

Penalties, if any, are decided later in the court process.<\/p>\n

Charging documents are accusations and not proof of guilt.<\/p>\n

Wood is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

How to follow the case<\/h2>\n

Readers can search public filings through the North Dakota Courts Records Inquiry<\/a>.<\/p>\n

County government information is available on the Grand Forks County<\/a> website.<\/p>\n

The county also posts contact details for the Grand Forks County Sheriff\u2019s Office<\/a>.<\/p>\n

North Dakota\u2019s criminal code is published by the Legislature, including Title 12.1-22 in this Century Code PDF<\/a>.<\/p>\n
