MINNIAPOLIS – A Minnesota woman assaulted by her boyfriend died from her injuries after she refused to go to the hospital.<\/p>\n
Timothy Heller was charged with second-degree murder in the death of his girlfriend. Heller assaulted her in a Brooklyn Park home and she died in St. Paul, the Hennepin County Attorney\u2019s Office announced Friday.<\/p>\n
Heller, 42, who has no permanent address, is expected to make his first appearance Monday in the death of 36-year-old Lacy Jo Krube. Prosecutors are asking for bail of $2 million.<\/p>\n
According to the criminal complaint<\/a>, the owners of a house in the 7500 block of Brunswick Avenue in Brooklyn Park knew Heller was homeless and when the brutal cold snap occurred earlier this month, they allowed him to stay at their house. After a week, he asked if his girlfriend could stay with him and they agreed.<\/p>\n On Feb. 20, the owners told Heller and Krube that they needed to leave the house by the next day. Later that same day, the homeowners saw them walking towards the house and they noticed Krube had visible bruises and other injuries to her face, the complaint states<\/a>.<\/p>\n Krube told the owners that Heller caused the injuries. One of the owners began fighting with Heller, who eventually fled, according to the complaint.<\/p>\n
