CHAMPLIN, Minn. -- Champlin police say a 38-year-old woman was arrested and has admitted sending anonymous threats to a family that said she wanted to taste and lick their children, CBS station WCCO reports.
Police say the woman was upset because the children made noise and left items in her yard. Carrie Pernula was arrested Friday and faces possible charges of gross misdemeanor terroristic threats and stalking.
Word of the threats spread quickly through social media and neighbors tell WCCO both they and the family were terrified.
The first anonymous threat arrived Sept. 27 by mail. The two short sentences said, "The children look delicious. May I have a taste?" The family lives in a Champlin neighborhood and they have two elementary school students.
