According to Police Hopkins a man and a woman and child are dead in what is being investigated as a potential murder-suicide Wednesday morning at an in-home daycare in Hopkins.

Hopkins Police Chief Brent Johnson said a parent dropping their child off at the residence on the 200 block of Tyler Avenue North reported the scene just after 9 a.m.

Six other children inside the daycare, all described as very young, were unharmed and are back with their families.

At this time, police believe the deceased are all within the same family. Johnson said the adults are likely the owners of the daycare.

According to Johnson, preliminary evidence indicates the deceased man was the perpetrator.

The chief said this appeared to be an isolated incident and there was no further threat to the public.

Investigators were still working to determine the nature of the injuries and what types of weapons were involved.

During his 2027 budget address on Wednesday morning, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey offered his thoughts and prayers to those involved, saying further that Minneapolis will help Hopkins in anyway possible.
