Authorities have discovered the body of a years-long missing woman in a suburban Minneapolis storage unit during an investigation of a man charged with killing his girlfriend, whose dismembered remains were found last week in a separate storage unit miles away.

Police found the body of Fanta Xayavong, 33, on Thursday while serving a search warrant at a storage facility in Coon Rapids. Authorities named Joseph Steven Jorgenson as a person of interest in the case, who police believe the victim was last seen with, police said.
