Wing County Jail on Friday, October 16, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The official jail roster records his booking at 4:19 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>His booking number is 69229.<\/p>\n<p>The record lists two allegations involving first-degree burglary and fourth-degree property damage.<\/p>\n<p>Both entries display the custody status &#8220;REMANDED.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>First-Degree Burglary Allegation<\/h2>\n<p>The more serious allegation involves first-degree burglary of an occupied dwelling.<\/p>\n<p>The jail roster cites Minnesota Statute 609.582, subdivision 1(a).<\/p>\n<p>The booking description references a dwelling occupied by someone who was not an accomplice.<\/p>\n<p>However, the record does not identify the dwelling or describe the alleged entry.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not explain what crime Horak allegedly intended to commit inside the building.<\/p>\n<p>No information about stolen property or reported injuries appears in the supplied listing.<\/p>\n<h2>What Minnesota Burglary Law Says<\/h2>\n<p>Minnesota Statute 609.582 establishes different levels of burglary based on the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>First-degree burglary includes entering a building without consent while meeting certain additional conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Subdivision 1(a) applies when the building is a dwelling occupied by someone other than an accomplice.<\/p>\n<p>The person must be present during the alleged unauthorized entry or while the accused remains inside.<\/p>\n<p>However, these are legal requirements, not independently established facts about Horak&#8217;s case.<\/p>\n<p>Readers can review <a

misdemeanors.<\/p>\n<p>However, the jail record does not identify the property allegedly damaged.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not provide a repair estimate or describe the reported damage.<\/p>\n<p>The

classified as a felony under Minnesota law.<\/p>\n<p>A conviction can carry up to 20 years in prison or a $35,000 fine, or both.<\/p>\n<p>The occupied-dwelling provision also carries a mandatory minimum incarceration requirement upon conviction.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth-degree property damage is a misdemeanor.<\/p>\n<p>A misdemeanor conviction can generally carry up to 90 days in jail or a $1,000 fine.<\/p>\n<p>These are possible statutory penalties, not sentences imposed against Horak.<\/p>\n<h2>Custody Status Listed as Remanded<\/h2>\n<p>Both roster entries display &#8220;REMANDED.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, the listing does not explain the court orders behind that designation.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not establish a conviction, sentence length, or confirmed release date.<\/p>\n<h2>Incident Location Not Confirmed<\/h2>\n<p>Crow Wing County Jail is located in Brainerd, Minnesota.<\/p>\n<p>However, the jail&#8217;s location does not establish where the alleged
