United States Attorney Erica H. MacDonald today announced
the guilty plea of DILLON GEORGE TAYLOR, 21, for assaulting three individuals
with a firearm. TAYLOR pleaded guilty on October 22, 2019, before Chief Judge
John R. Tunheim in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is
scheduled to be sentenced on February 21, 2020.
According to the defendant’s guilty plea and documents filed
in court, on November 22, 2018, during a confrontation with two individuals,
TAYLOR pointed a firearm at one of the individuals and threatened his life.
When the two individuals left the scene in a vehicle driven by a third
individual, TAYLOR pursued them and shot at the vehicle multiple times. When
the vehicle pulled into the parking lot of a casino located on the Red Lake
Indian Reservation, TAYLOR continued his pursuit, firing a shot towards the
entrance of the casino where the three individuals and casino personnel were
standing.
This case is the result of an investigation conducted by the
Red Lake Tribal Police Department and the FBI Headwaters Safe Trails Task
Force.
Assistant United States Attorney Alexander D. Chiquoine is
prosecuting the case.
