ROSEVILLE, Minn. — Prosecutors are charging 38-year-old Thorbjorn Vadnis Koyen MacBain with second-degree attempted murder and second-degree assault after allegedly exposing his wife to a toxic chemical at a Roseville park.
Shortly after 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, police officers responded to a report of a woman having a medical emergency at Central Park on Lexington Ave. in Roseville.
The woman was taken to a hospital, where medical tests showed she may have been exposed to "some kind of toxic chemical," according to a press release.
On Thursday, police took the ex-husband, MacBain, into custody for questioning.
The FBI Minneapolis Hazardous Evidence Response Team and the Minnesota National Guard's 55th Civil Support Team searched the park and determined the area to be safe for the public.
Anyone with information about this case is asked to contact police.
