MINNEAPOLIS — Police say a woman has been arrested after trying to hang a 16-month-old boy at a Minneapolis day care and then threatening to jump from a freeway overpass.

Assistant Police Chief Kris Arneson says a parent arriving at the day care Friday rescued the boy, and that he is “doing fine.”

Arneson says the woman fled in a gold minivan, ran over a pedestrian and struck a bicyclist. Arneson says the pedestrian and bicyclist will survive.

The woman later went to the Park Ave. overpass above Interstate 94 and threatened to jump, but police and passers-by stopped her. Authorities have identified the suspect as Nataliia M. Karia, 42, who is the operator of Uptown Daycare.

The Star Tribune reports that police don’t know a motive.

"I am a licensed childcare provider, college educated mom who has full time openings at my house to care for your child, " the Facebook page for the Uptown Daycare states. "I am a trained in first aid and CPR. I have a luxury home with a large fenced yard just steps away from the Lake of the Isles that has been remodeled for the safety of your child."

“Why are those words more and more beginning to take on a meaning of “psychotic and unstable lunatic”?”

Maybe it’s because colleges are nearing the end phase of their decades long re-tooling for the assembly-line production of psychotic and unstable lunatics?

When I was still practicing law full-time I would get probably one call per week from a grandparent wanting to see about getting custody of their grandchild. I did not have much hope to give them. Very sad.

I know grandparents who have custody of the grandchildren. That’s a sad situation, because the parents have completely failed. It’s better when parents and grandparents are working together, everyone caring for the children.

My friend’s older granddaughter, who is about 10, was helping with the baby sister, but the baby, about 8 months old, wanted her grandmother. All the choir-ladies wanted the baby!

Son & DIL and their two little ones are living with me and Mr Sneakers. We all work, but one of us is always with the kids. DIL works part time evenings and son, me and Mr S work full time days. No need for some stranger watching the kids. Too many weirdos out there.

Threatening to jump from an overpass?
The cop should have pushed her.

Daycare is like kenneling your pet.

May be necessary sometimes but as a general rule not recommended.

And so why does Child Services always award custody to mothers?

Children who give you those precious grandchildren are pretty good too.
