Moorhead Man Booked on Assault, DANCO Charges<\/h2>\n

Moorhead<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Elfonzo Dyrell Shelby, 56, was recently booked into the Clay County Jail on several charges.<\/p>\n

Shelby was booked at 3:26 p.m. on Friday, August 7, 2026.<\/p>\n

Three law enforcement agencies are connected to charges listed in the booking record.<\/p>\n

They include the Clay County Sheriff’s Office, Minnesota Highway Patrol, and Moorhead Police Department.<\/p>\n

Several Charges Listed<\/h2>\n

The Clay County Sheriff’s Office listed a charge involving an alleged DANCO violation.<\/p>\n

The booking record says the alleged violation occurred within ten years of two or more convictions.<\/p>\n

Readers can review Minnesota’s DANCO law online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Minnesota Highway Patrol listed two additional charges.<\/p>\n

One involves allegedly fleeing a peace officer in a motor vehicle.<\/p>\n

The second Highway Patrol charge concerns allegedly giving an officer false identifying information.<\/p>\n

The listed information could include a false name, birthdate, or identification card.<\/p>\n

Minnesota’s law on fleeing an officer<\/a> is available online.<\/p>\n

Domestic Assault Allegation<\/h2>\n

The Moorhead Police Department listed a domestic assault charge in the booking record.<\/p>\n

The entry references alleged great bodily harm and possible use or threat of a weapon.<\/p>\n

The available booking information does not provide details about the reported incident.<\/p>\n

It also does not identify an alleged victim or describe any reported injuries.<\/p>\n

No police officers or deputies are named in this report.<\/p>\n

The record does not show whether all listed charges came from the same incident.<\/p>\n

Case Remains Pending<\/h2>\n

A jail booking does not mean a person has been convicted of a crime.<\/p>\n

The charges against Shelby remain allegations unless proven in court.<\/p>\n

Charges may also be changed, dismissed, or resolved through later court proceedings.<\/p>\n

Readers can search public case information through Minnesota Court Records Online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Additional inmate information may be available through the Clay County inmate roster<\/a>.<\/p>\n

TRF News will report further developments when verified public information becomes available.<\/p>\n
