Mpls Police Looking For Suspect In Stabbing
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Minneapolis Police are looking for a suspect after a 39-year-old woman reported being stabbed in her home back in early June, authorities said.
At about 1:30 p.m. on June 7, the victim left her home on the 300 block of East 18th Street for a short time. When she came home to lay down, she was woken up by a male burglar who was armed with a butcher knife, police said.
