   A Twin Cities man is facing trial on attempted murder charges after an alleged   
   poisoning that nearly killed the woman he shares two children with.   
      
   Thorbjorn MacBain, a 38-year-old St. Paul resident, was charged Friday over   
   the incident, which happened during a custody visit with his kids at   
   Roseville's Central Park.   
      
   According to a release from the local police department, officers were   
   summoned to the park Wednesday on a report of a female suffering a medical   
   emergency.   
      
   When they arrived, MacBain told them he and his kids had been playing with   
   water guns, and that the victim "had a panic attack after he sprayed her with   
   water," the release says. He also told the officers that "she had other   
   underlying health problems    
   that may have contributed to her condition."   
      
   The victim — "whose symptoms were consistent with being poisoned with an   
   organophosphate," a compound used in chemical warfare — nearly died at the   
   hospital.   
      
   When her condition stabilized, she reported to detectives that MacBain came up   
   behind her while she was sitting on a park bench and "poured a liquid on her."   
   This liquid "had a smell and feeling inconsistent with water," and immediately   
   caused her to    
   feel as if she was losing consciousness. Though she had difficulty speaking,   
   she managed to call 911.   
      
   According to authorities, detectives also learned that "one of the two   
   children was slightly splashed with the liquid and developed mild symptoms."   
      
   "Out of an abundance of caution," hazardous evidence teams were sent to assess   
   the park after the incident, ultimately determining that there was no risk to   
   public safety there.   
      
   MacBain was taken into custody on Thursday. He was charged the next day with   
   both 2nd degree attempted murder and 2nd degree assault.   
      
   Authorities are asking anyone with information on the case to submit a tip to   
   Roseville police at 651-792-7008, or online at http://www.cityof
