Jason Donarski and Jayden Burton are charged in Becker County. They are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The complaint says the attack happened on November 22, 2025. A man reported that masked intruders entered his home in Becker County.<\/p>\n

Investigators say the men wore masks and brought brass knuckles. They allegedly forced their way into the occupied dwelling.<\/p>\n

The victim told officials the intruders punched and hit him. He reported injuries after the beating inside his own home.<\/p>\n

Even with the masks, the victim said he recognized the men. He said he had known Donarski and Burton for some time.<\/p>\n

Court documents add that the victim once worked as a confidential informant. He had assisted a prior case involving one suspect.<\/p>\n

Investigators think that informant work may relate to the alleged attack. A third person may also have been involved in the incident.<\/p>\n

No charges have yet been filed against that third person. The case is still under review, according to the complaint.<\/p>\n

Donarski and Burton each face felony burglary and felony assault counts. They also face a charge of burglary of an occupied dwelling.<\/p>\n

The case is moving through Becker County District Court. People can search public records at\u00a0mncourts.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Minnesota statutes on assault and burglary are available at\u00a0revisor.mn.gov<\/a>, which lists current state laws.<\/p>\n

Crime victims in Minnesota can seek help and compensation information from the Office of Justice Programs at\u00a0ojp.dps.mn.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At this stage, the charges remain only allegations. Jason Donarski and Jayden Burton are presumed innocent unless a judge or jury decides otherwise.<\/p>\n
