A man is found fatally wounded in his car outside his home Corey Anthony Parker, 30, an African-American male from Minneapolis, died on January 12, 2007, after being transported to North Memorial Hospital in Robbinsdale. Public memorial records list his full name and confirm the date and place of death, while noting his connections to both Minneapolis and Waterloo, Iowa.
Born on February 24, 1976, in Iowa City, he was remembered in notices that traced his early life and family ties back to Waterloo before adulthood drew him to the Twin Cities.
Those remembrances, preserved online, paint the outline of a life that straddled two communities—roots in Iowa and day-to-day in Minneapolis—before ending abruptly in Minnesota in early 2007.
Despite the confirmation of his death and the passage of years, there is no publicly available record from law-enforcement sources identifying an arrested suspect in connection with his case or announcing criminal charges. Broad public resources that catalog Minnesota homicides and unsolved cases do not surface a named offender tied to Corey Anthony Parker, and statewide criminal-history and unsolved-case portals offer no specific arrest entry that can be linked to his death. In the absence of an official announcement, his case appears in the public record only as a life remembered and a loss marked, without a companion narrative of an arrest or prosecution.
The official state vital-records index provides a way to verify deaths that occurred in Minnesota from 1997 onward, and serves as the administrative backbone for the basic facts of his passing. Yet beyond those vital statistics, the open web yields no detailed investigative chronology, no suspect description circulated by authorities, and no court filings that would signal a solved case. In that silence, what remains accessible online is a spare but steady remembrance: a date, a place, and the contours of a life that bridged Iowa and Minnesota, with no public sign that anyone has been brought to account.
