Death investigation launched in South St. Paul after body found
Police Chief Brian Wicke says the investigation has “some complexities” to it, and his department has asked the Minnesota BCA for help.
SOUTH ST PAUL, Minn. — Investigators are waiting on a medical examiner’s report as they conduct a death investigation in connection with a body discovered inside a home in South St. Paul.
A Facebook post by the South St. Paul Police Department says squads responded to an address on the 300 block of 1st Ave. S. just after 6 p.m. on Wednesday, April 5 on reports of a person dead inside the residence. Responding officers found a man deceased from what police are calling “unknown causes.”
Police Chief Brian Wicke says agents from the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) were called in to assist due to “some complexities” with the investigation. Wicke says the department is waiting on results from the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office to determine the cause and manner of death. Those findings will determine the direction investigators take moving forward.
“At this time, we do not believe there to be any threat or danger to the public associated with this death investigation and we will update should that information change,” read the Facebook post on the incident.
