A 23-year-old woman was killed and a man is in custody after neighbors saw him “dragging a dead body” from a Richfield apartment complex early Saturday, police say.
Just before 3:15 a.m., residents of an apartment building at 7601 Knox Ave. S. told police a man was pulling a body into a car, the Richfield Police Department said in a news release.
An officer found the vehicle and tried to get it to pull over, but the driver continued to M Health Fairview Southdale Hospital in Edina.
Police searched the vehicle and found an unconscious woman in the back seat with a gunshot wound.
Despite lifesaving efforts, the woman died from her injuries, the news release said. The driver was taken into custody.
