Minneapolis, Minnesota - The Hennepin County criminal complaint in Minnesota was filed on April 16, 2026 against USICE agent Gregory Donnell Morgan Jr., 35, who has been criminally charged with two state felony counts for 2nd-degree assault with a dangerous weapon. USICE agent Morgan is facing up to 7 years in prison and $4,000 to $14,000 in fines for each count, or both, if convicted on all counts.
According to the criminal complaint, several victims stated that on February 5, 2026, Morgan Jr. had pursued them on Minnesota State Highway 62 and I-35W and pointed a firearmed at two victims while he was recklessly driving illegally in the right shoulder.
At the time of the incident, Victim 1 was driving east on Hwy 62 through the above-described 1-35W interchange. Victim 2 was in the front-passenger seat. Victim 1 stated that they were queued with other vehicles in the single lane of traffic when they saw a black Ford Expedition approaching from behind, driving illegally on the right shoulder. Victim 1 moved their car partially onto the shoulder in front of the Expedition, attempting to "cut him off a little bit and block the Expedition driver's effort to bypass traffic unlawfully. Victim 1 was unaware that the driver, later identified as Morgan, the Defendant, was associated with a law- enforcement agency. There were no markings on Morgan's vehicle that would identify it as law enforcement and the vehicle was not displaying or using lights or sirens.
After briefly using the vehicle to attempt to block Morgan from using the shoulder, Victim 1 returned the vehicle to the legal traffic lane. Morgan continued to travel on the shoulder but rather than continue to drive past the victims, he pulled alongside their vehicle, rolled down his window, and pointed a black handgun directly at Victim 1 and Victim 2. Victim 1 had a clear view of Morgan's appearance, saw that he was wearing a black t-shirt, saw that the gun was pointed directly at their heads, saw that the gun was a Glock or Sig Sauer handgun with what appeared to be a red-dot sight, and noted that Morgan yelled something indiscernible. The windows on Victim 1's car were closed, and the victims weren't able to hear what Morgan was velling. Victim 1 felt threatened for their safety and immediately called 911.
Victim 2 corroborated Victim 1's report. Victim 2 was in the front-passenger seat and saw the Expeditior driving on the right shoulder of Hwy 62 "really, really fast." Victim 2 said that Victim 1 moved the car into the shoulder to "slow him down." Victim 2 explained that in response Morgan pulled alongside them, rolled down his window, and pointed his gun straight at Victim 2 and Victim 1. This caused Victim 2 to feel threatened and scared for their safety. As with Victim 1, Victim 2 was unaware that Morgan was a federal agent, noting that the Expedition had no markings to indicate it was being used by law enforcement.
Victim 2 shared with troopers two videos recorded with a cell phone after Morgan pointed his firearm at them. On the videos, Victim 1 and Victim 2 are driving behind Morgan and recording the back of the Expedition, which had an identifiable Utah license plate.
