The front of the Blaine mobile home with white siding is splattered with blood. Two people are dead, and a baby is in protective custody.
That's the scene this morning in the aftermath of what a neighbor described as "three blood-curdling screams in a row."

About 1:40 a.m., a man called Anoka County authorities and told them that they could find the body of a woman on the front steps of residence in the Restwood Terrace Mobile Home Park. When police arrived, they found a woman in her 20s lying outside a home in the 9200 block of NE. Quemoy Court.

Police also found a 4-month-old inside the home unharmed. The infant was placed in protective custody, police said.

About an hour later, police discovered a man in his 20s dead on the side of Interstate Hwy. 35W at 95th Avenue NE. A vehicle the man is believed to have driven to the scene was found on the bridge above the freeway, police said.

Cheryl Koch, who lives in the mobile home park, said she heard those "blood-curdling screams" overnight and then later heard a car racing out of the neighborhood about midnight or 1 a.m.

Police have not released the victim's names, but say the two incidents are related. They did not say whether any weapons have been recovered or used. Police said they are not looking for any suspects.

Police Chief Dave Johnson said police have no record of calls to the residence where the woman was found.

Crime is rising in the suburbs thanks to St.Paul chasing them out of the city by removing all the low income housing, what cowards, rather then deal with criminal behavior themselves.
