According to the complaint, a White Earth police officer was stationed near the intersection around 9:45 p.m.<\/p>\n
The officer reportedly observed Warren driving a gray Pontiac Bonneville.<\/p>\n
Authorities alleged Warren had one hand near his ear, suggesting he might have been using a cellphone.<\/p>\n
The officer also reported that Warren was not wearing a seat belt.<\/p>\n
The complaint states the officer knew from previous encounters that Warren did not have a valid driver’s license.<\/p>\n
The officer activated emergency lights and stopped the vehicle.<\/p>\n
The supplied complaint excerpt does not describe what happened after the initial stop.<\/p>\n
It also does not include statements Warren may have made during the encounter.<\/p>\n
Gross Misdemeanor Driving Charge<\/h2>\n
Prosecutors alleged Warren drove despite having his driving privileges canceled or denied for public safety reasons.<\/p>\n

Under Minnesota law, driving after this type of cancellation can result in a gross misdemeanor charge.<\/p>\n
The statute requires proof that the driver knowingly, or with sufficient notice, violated the cancellation order.<\/p>\n
