FARGO, N.D. — Two people could face kidnapping charges after police found the newborn baby of a missing Fargo woman with a person who is a suspect in her disappearance, authorities said Friday.

Brooke Crews, 38, and William Hoehn, 32, were arrested Thursday night after police tried to interview them about 22-year-old Savanna Greywind, who was eight months pregnant when she was last seen at her apartment on Saturday. Police Chief Dave Todd said the suspects are not cooperating, with the exception of indicating to detectives that it was Greywind’s baby. The suspects were Greywind’s neighbors in the apartment building.

“Both (of them) invoked their right to counsel and refused to answer any more questions,” Todd said.

The baby was with Crews when she was arrested in the same apartment building where Greywind was living with her parents. Hoehn was apprehended separately.

“We have some possible motives here but I’m not willing to speak on those as of yet,” Todd said.
