Bemidji: Lucas Headbird Booked on Felony DWI Charge<\/h2>\n

Bemidji (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2014 Lucas Headbird was booked into the Beltrami County Jail on September 14, 2026.<\/p>\n

The jail roster lists two charges against Headbird.<\/p>\n

Both charges are listed as felonies in the booking record.<\/p>\n

The most serious listed driving charge is first-degree driving while impaired.<\/p>\n

First-Degree DWI Charge<\/h2>\n

The DWI charge is listed under Minnesota Statute 169A.24, subdivision 1(1).<\/p>\n

The charge alleges first-degree DWI following three or more qualifying prior impaired-driving incidents within ten years.<\/p>\n

Minnesota law classifies first-degree DWI as a felony.<\/p>\n

A conviction can carry up to seven years in prison.<\/p>\n

The statute also allows a fine of up to $14,000, or both penalties.<\/p>\n

The booking information does not describe the alleged driving incident.<\/p>\n

It does not list an alcohol concentration or alleged controlled substance.<\/p>\n

The roster also does not identify the prior impaired-driving incidents.<\/p>\n

Obstruction Charge Also Listed<\/h2>\n

Headbird also faces a charge under Minnesota Statute 609.50, subdivision 1(2).<\/p>\n

That law covers intentionally obstructing, resisting, or interfering with a peace officer performing official duties.<\/p>\n

The Beltrami County roster classifies Headbird’s listed charge as a felony.<\/p>\n

Minnesota law provides different penalties depending on the circumstances.<\/p>\n

A felony penalty can apply when specified serious harm or risk conditions are present.<\/p>\n

The short jail entry does not describe those alleged circumstances.<\/p>\n

Booked in Beltrami County<\/h2>\n

The roster lists Headbird’s custody date as September 14.<\/p>\n

His listed bail or fine amount was $0.00.<\/p>\n

No court date was shown in the information provided.<\/p>\n

The charges are assigned to District Court.<\/p>\n

Beltrami County Jail is located in Bemidji.<\/p>\n

Public custody information is available through the Beltrami County inmate search<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Charges Remain Allegations<\/h2>\n

A jail booking does not establish guilt.<\/p>\n

The charges against Headbird remain allegations unless proven or otherwise resolved in court.<\/p>\n

Future court filings may provide more details about both allegations.<\/p>\n
