Charges say Bloomington man tried to blame victim in deadly April crash, had BAC twice the legal limit
A 32-year-old man is accused of having a blood alcohol level more than twice the legal limit during a deadly crash in Bloomington, Minnesota, earlier this year, according to charges filed in Hennepin County. The man is facing two counts each of criminal vehicular homicide and criminal vehicular operation, both while under the influence of alcohol, for the April 27 crash. Charges say police responded to a two-vehicle crash near the intersection of 86th Street East and Old Cedar Avenue South at approximately 11:23 p.m. Upon arrival, officers saw a Ford Fusion on fire and a black Toyota Sienna that had been in a head-on collision. Police said the Ford had extensive front-end damage. Firefighters reported finding a woman unresponsive near the rear passenger door on the driver's side of the Ford, according to the criminal complaint. Despite life-saving measures, the woman died at the hospital less than an hour later. Her cause of death was blunt force injuries sustained in the crash, an autopsy concluded. Police spoke with the 32-year-old suspect, who allegedly told officers he was the passenger in the Ford and the woman was driving when the crash happened. He claimed to be scrolling on his phone at the time of the collision. Charges say the driver and passenger of the Toyota were transported to the hospital for injuries. They allegedly reported to police "a fast-moving vehicle hit the curb on the right side of the road and then veered into the opposite lane of traffic, colliding with the minivan," according to court documents. A witness also told investigators they had seen the Ford driving recklessly and rapidly accelerating shortly before the crash. Investigators noted the driver's seatbelt on the Ford was locked out, which charges say is consistent with it having been worn during the collision. The passenger seatbelt was not locked out. The complaint says that during the execution of a search warrant on May 2, investigators observed bruising across the suspect's chest "consistent with the pattern of a driver's side seatbelt," while the woman's body did not have bruising that suggested she wore a seatbelt during the crash. Nearly two hours after the crash, at 1:09 a.m., a blood sample was collected from the suspect. An analysis by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension revealed he had a blood alcohol concentration of .191. The legal limit in Minnesota is .08. Additionally, he had "measured quantities of THC metabolites in his blood," charges state. The suspect has previous convictions for impaired driving incidents, most recently in March 2024. His driving privileges were revoked following the April crash. The suspect is in custody.

Gov. Youngkin calls for investigation into ‘repeated failures' of Fairfax County Commonwealth's Attorney after alleged attempted child abduction
FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. () — Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin and Attorney General Jason Miyares are calling for an investigation into Fairfax County Commonwealth's Attorney Steve Descano after a man they say had just been released from jail allegedly tried to abduct a child at the Fair Oaks Mall. At around 11:45 a.m. on July 18, officers responded to the Fair Oaks Mall for a reported abduction. There, police learned that a young girl was near an indoor play area when a man picked her up and walked away with her, making it all the way to the second floor of the shopping center before the girl's parents intervened and got her back uninjured, according to officials. PREVIOUS COVERAGE | Child snatched at Fairfax County mall before rescued by parents, police say The suspect, who police identified as 26-year-old Andres Caceres Jaldin, reportedly fled before officers arrived. Investigators discovered that he was staying at Extended Stay in Chantilly, and had stolen a car from a nearby auto body repair shop earlier that morning, according to police. Authorities arrested Caceres Jaldin at his hotel room that afternoon. Now, Youngkin is calling on Miyares to open an investigation into Descano, alleging that Caceres Jaldin is a 'repeat offender' who was released from Fairfax County jail just three days before the incident. 'There is a shocking and unforgivable pattern in Fairfax County of releasing criminals back onto Virginia's streets instead of keeping them behind bars,' Youngkin wrote, in part, in a post on the X platform Friday night. 'The Commonwealth's Attorney cares more about protecting criminals than about keeping children safe.' Following Youngkin's post, Miyares also , saying his office 'will examine the facts and report to the people of Fairfax why CA Descano's refusal to prosecute criminals has been allowed to endanger the public.' According to court records obtained by DC News Now, Caceres Jaldin was released on his own recognizance on July 15 in connection with a hit and run that took place on July 2. 'Release on one's own recognizance' is to allow a person who has been charged with a crime to be released from custody based on their promised to return to court and follow certain guidelines while awaiting trial. Court records also show that Caceres Jaldin had previous arrests for various offenses including destruction of property, assault and battery on a family member and malicious wounding; however, these charges were formally dropped by prosecution. DC News Now reached out to Descano's office for comment but has not yet heard back. Check for updates.
