Mpls. Man Charged In Disappearance Of His Child's Mother

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A Minneapolis man faces charges in connection with the disappearance and possible death of his child's mother.

Thirty-one-year-old Joshua Lewis Duane Dow was charged Monday with second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon and interference with a dead body. He was arrested Nov. 23 after his brother told police that Dow said 25-year-old Adelle "Addie" Jensen of Minneapolis shot herself on Nov. 18 and then Dow threatened to shoot him if he didn't help move her body.

The brother said he and Dow moved Jensen's body to a warehouse in Minneapolis and cleaned up blood inside of their home.

Court records allege Dow told a witness that he dismembered and disposed of the body.

It wasn't immediately known if he has an attorney.
