According to a criminal complaint filed in Beltrami County District Court, Jordan Lee Lussier, 30, of Bemidji, was charged with carrying a BB gun, rifle, shotgun, or assault weapon in a public place.<\/p>\n

The charge was filed under Minnesota Statute 624.7181<\/a>. The offense is listed as a gross misdemeanor.<\/p>\n

If convicted, Lussier could face up to 364 days in jail. He could also face a fine of up to $3,000, or both.<\/p>\n

Police Responded To Downtown Bemidji<\/h2>\n

The complaint says Bemidji police were called around 1:30 a.m. on April 26, 2026. Officers responded to the area of 310 Beltrami Avenue Northwest.<\/p>\n

Replica Glock 19 BB Gun Reported<\/h2>\n

Court documents say Lussier was found with a replica Glock 19 BB gun.<\/p>\n

The complaint says police believe Lussier walked on a public road or sidewalk while carrying the BB gun. That claim is tied to his reported entry into Keg N Cork.<\/p>\n
