Very sad indeed. Assuming the ages are correct. He is listed 50 and his she was 28. It Looks like an arranged marriage to me. Most of the time they just do not work. However, for it to end like this is just so sad.

Suspect charged with fatal St. Louis Park shooting


Authorities have arrested a suspect in a fatal shooting outside of an assisted living facility.

Hennepin County officials told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS they arrested 50-year-old Michael Collins Iheme of Brooklyn Park.

Iheme has been charged with first-degree murder in connection with a shooting outside of Sholom Home West, located in the 3600 block of Phillips Parkway.

According to the criminal complaint, Iheme shot his wife, 28-year-old Anthonia Eberchi Iheme, several times while she was inside her car around 3 p.m. Thursday.

"Yes, I have killed the woman that messed my life up, a woman that had destroyed me," Iheme admitted in the criminal complaint.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner confirmed Friday that Anthonia Iheme died as a result of multiple gun shot wounds.

St. Louis Park Police later arrested Iheme in the parking lot of the assisted living home.

Officials recovered a .45 caliber magazine, Minnesota gun permit, and a receipt from a gun purchase from Cabela's from Iheme's car, according to the criminal complaint.

According to Hennepin County District Court records, the victim had a current restraining order against Iheme. The couple had a long history of domestic abuse, according to police records.

Anthonia and Michael have a pending divorce case open in Hennepin County.

The couple also has two children, who were taken to a day care center the day of the shooting. Iheme went to the center and gave workers additional emergency contact information, telling employees he was making the change 'in case something happened,' according to the criminal complaint.

The Sholom Community Alliance has set up a memorial fund for Anthonia's children through Bremer Bank.

Checks should be made payable to: Anthonia Iheme Memorial Fund

Sad.
domestic violence,hmmmmn

very sad. st. louis for you.

It happens

_{waiting for the tribalists again}

A Nigerian man?? That's crazy! So the woman at 28 has gone just like that?? _*sigh* Very sad life we living  

What could have driven a Nigerian man to kill his wife?? I wish they explained the reason for his action.

_{As na Igbo man, Heaven knows we will not hear the last of this.}

Oti O! Weak man! Now he will spend the rest of his life in prison. Abeg they should deport the craze man back to Nigeria so that we can send him to the paradise called "Kiri-kiri" for the royal treatment that befits him. Sho gbo?

wow, how sad.
what's a young woman doing with an old dog?
shior

thats Y I don't believe in arranged marriage.  I think it's bes to know the person first.  find out their do's and don't first

where did you get the idea that it was arranged?

Isnt it the "nigerian" thing for old agbayas to run after young girls?

agbaya oshi. Loser didnt even have respect for the law. The woman had a bloody restraining order against him.

Wooooow. . .that's so sad. . . arranged marriages use work back in the day but in this day and age they are the DEVIL!

R.I.P To the lady.

Her Family just lost a loveone due to some idiot stupidity.

Message to all the murderers out there: If You are sick with life, do us all a favor and kill yourself. Not someone else Child.

Dont people ever learn?


I'm so tired of seeing faces splashed across the news every now and then, for spousal homicide.

The man is 50. I wonder how a 28 year old woman destroyed his life? That's probably not his first marriage either.

Some Nigerian women who are having permanent marital problems may need to consider moving out of state or out of the country in order to reduce friction and save their lives.


I wonder why some Nigerian men find it so difficult to humble themselves when going through tough times in their marriages, and try to make peace with their wives. Very few women will continue to fight a man who shows love and humility.

And in any case, is amicable divorce uncultural? Why must it be do or die, making a tragedy out of an already terrible situation?

Hmm, ibo people no kill usooo(j/k).

Was the girl bound and gagged and handed over to an older man? Anybody that grew up in Nigeria will remember how Nigerian girls flocked towards these dinosaurs because they were seen as more financially secure.

Funny enough i know this family too.

Who cares HCOO?

Alot of things arent just specific to Naija fgemales but you guys have no problem making generaliations so get over it

4Play, if you couldnt get what I was trying to imply with that comment well then

@TOH

I don't want to "get" anything,I just want to bash Naija women,that's all.

Generalizing in return doesn't make it any better.  This incident occurs everywhere.  White people are no saints either.  We should be glad we're not as bad as they are.

oh? well then I'll bash "certain" Naija men and tell them to stop being such AGBAYAS where they wait to they're in their mid 50s to marry and whne they finally do, they go after small girls then become psychos well the small girl rebels against them

Have about that?

Yeah i heard this on the news. I have to admit, it does sound like an arranged marriage. i mean 50 and 28. that has arranged marriage written all over it.

@topic
what a waste

when last have you been to Nigeria?

Why won't aging men "prey" on younger Nigerian women when these women allow them to? Nigerian women just love money and sometimes,they have to pay the price.

Let's not turn this into a naija men vs. naija women topic.  Raping babies to cure aids?  Who in their right mind would do that (nigerian or not) . . .  Your father is a naija man, does he rape babies?  Not all naija men are out of control.
The problem here is, a crime was commited by a stupid fellow.   As if your grudges with the manners of naija men is going to bring the woman back to life.  hiss!

Ever heard of internet??

Please don't put all naija women in one category. What if we put naija men in one category??
