A 19-year-old man suspected of killing a woman who answered an online ad for a baby sitter has been charged with second-degree murder.
Michael John Anderson is accused of shooting Katherine Ann Olson in the back at his home in suburban Savage, according to the criminal complaint filed in Scott County District Court.
Authorities said her blood was found in Anderson’s home and a gun was found in his bedroom. A neighbor saw Olson’s car sitting in front of Anderson’s house for more than two hours on Thursday.
The 24-year-old Minneapolis woman was found Friday night in the trunk of her car, which was abandoned in a park about five blocks from Anderson’s home. Olson’s purse and a bag containing bloody towels, one of which bore Anderson’s name, were found in trash nearby.
