The Complainant states that the following facts establish probable cause:
Your complainant is a licensed peace officer in the State of Minnesota and is employed by the Minnesota State Patrol. In that capacity and after review of the reports, your complainant states the following to establish probable cause: On J uly 30, 2014, at approximately 2:32 p.m. numerous law enforcement officers from various jurisdictions were searching for a suspect in a homicide. Trooper Sturgill observed a vehicle matching the description of the homicide suspect traveling in the area of 1st Street and D Street in Mendota Heights. Trooper Sturgill also observed that the driver of the vehicle matched the description of the homicide suspect. Trooper Sturgill, along with other law enforcement officers, activated their emergency lights in an attempt to stop the vehicle on 1st Street. The suspect vehicle initially pulled over to the right shoulder of the road and slowed down. The driver of the suspect vehicle, later identified as STEVEN DION KELLUM, dob 08/11/1967, the defendant herein, then sped up and began driving on 1st Street towards Highway 110. KELLUM drove the vehicle the wrong way on 1st Street for several blocks before swerving through the ditch on his left, traveled several more blocks the correct direction on 1st Street and exited onto Highway 110. KELLUM continued to travel eastbound on Highway 110, with law enforcement officers in pursuit. KELLUM was weaving between all lanes of travel and using both shoulders in an attempt to evade law enforcement. Stop sticks were successfully deployed, causing KELLUM to slow. KELLUM continued to flee and traveled northbound on I-494, with flat tires. KELLUM exited on Lake Street. Trooper Sturgill was able to perform a pit maneuver on the exit ramp and stop the vehicle driven by KELLUM. The vehicle was stopped on the exit ramp of I-494 onto Lake Street, in the City of Woodbury, Washington County, Minnesota. Law enforcement officers approached the vehicle and demanded KELLUM exit the vehicle. KELLUM refused to exit the vehicle and yelled "no" in response to their commands. A police K-9 was deployed on KELLUM and he continued to refuse to exit the vehicle. Trooper Mains was able to get close to the vehicle and deployed a taser into KELLUM's left side, at which point law enforcement were able to remove KELLUM from the vehicle. Trooper Sturgill noticed that KELLUM's pupils were pin points and that his speech was slurred. Based on Trooper Sturgill's training and experience he believed that KELLUM was under the influence of a controlled substance. KELLUM informed law enforcement that he fled because he did not have a valid driver's license. During a search of KELLUM's vehicle, suspected cocaine was located that NIK tested positive for cocaine. KELLUM was transported to Woodwinds Hospital in Woodbury where he was read the Minnesota Implied Consent Advisory and refused to provide a blood or urine sample. 3 SIGNATURES AND APPROVALS Complainant requests that Defendant, subject to bail or conditions of release, be: (1) arrested or that other lawful steps be taken to obtain Defendant's appearance in court; or (2) detained, if already in custody, pending further proceedings; and that said Defendant otherwise be dealt with according to law.
