FRIDLEY, Minn. — It's been 35 years since 8-month-old Michael Freeman died one day after having seizures while in the care of his babysitter in Fridley.

Officials say Michael was transported to a hospital on Nov. 5, 1989, and then died the following day. An autopsy showed that he had a skull fracture, a large subdural hemmorrhage and a cerebral edema, leading authorities to rule his death a homicide.

No arrest was ever made, but the Anoka County Sheriff's Office is again looking to the public for any information that could help lead officials to a suspect.

Anyone with possible leads or tips is asked to email the department at ACSOColdCases@anokacountymn.gov. Officials say people can remain anonymous as they look for more answers.
