Moorhead Man Booked on Drug, Property Charges<\/h2>\n

MOORHEAD, Minn.<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Richard Emil Heintzelman, 65, was booked into the Clay County Jail on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The booking occurred at 1:17 p.m. on July 9, 2026. The Moorhead Police Department was listed as the arresting agency.<\/p>\n

The jail record lists three charges against Heintzelman. One charge alleges fifth-degree controlled substance possession.<\/p>\n

The entry describes Schedule I, II, III, or IV substances. It also mentions residue found in drug paraphernalia.<\/p>\n

The record says the charge does not involve cannabis or hemp. No specific substance was identified in the supplied information.<\/p>\n

Two other charges concern allegedly stolen property. One alleges bringing stolen property into Minnesota.<\/p>\n

The other alleges possessing or receiving stolen property. The record does not describe the property or its reported value.<\/p>\n

Booking Record Provides Limited Details<\/h2>\n

The supplied entry does not explain where the alleged offenses happened. It also does not list any reported victims.<\/p>\n

No criminal complaint was included with the booking information. Such a complaint could provide more facts after filing.<\/p>\n

The record also omits any court date, bail amount, or release conditions. Those details may appear in later court records.<\/p>\n

Charges Remain Allegations<\/h2>\n

A jail booking is not a finding of guilt. Heintzelman is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors may review the evidence before filing formal charges. Filed charges can differ from the initial jail listing.<\/p>\n

Minnesota law addresses fifth-degree controlled substance possession under Section 152.025<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The statute covers certain scheduled substances and qualifying residue. It includes exceptions for cannabis and specified hemp products.<\/p>\n

Minnesota law also addresses bringing stolen goods into the state. That provision appears under Section 609.525<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Receiving or possessing stolen property is addressed under Section 609.53<\/a>.<\/p>\n
