(Alexandria, MN) — An arrest has been made in a stabbing death in Alexandria last November. Police arrested 78-year-old Angel Rua-Torres at the home where the crime took place. The Douglas County Attorney’s Office has charged Rua-Torres with the murder of 58-year-old Desiree Frederick, his niece. Rua-Torres told police he saw a man running out of the mobile home and leaving in a convertible. Surveillance video from near the scene proved that it was a lie. The case has been under investigation by Alexandria police and the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension with assistance from the North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation.
