Daryll Anthony Keys

On March 21, 2026, at approximately 6:10 P.M., police responded to [ADDRESS REDACTED], St. Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota, on a report of a domestic assault. Upon arrival, police met with TSH, who was pouring water on the carpet of the hallway to dilute vomit. TSH said she was in a relationship with her boyfriend, DARYLL ANTHONY KEYS – [DOB REDACTED], for nine months and stayed with him on and off. TSH told police that KEYS recently strangled her a few days prior to today’s incident and showed them a scar on her neck from that incident.

TSH stated that earlier in the day, she and KEYS argued, and KEYS stole her house keys before they separated. TSH said she returned home to find KEYS inside her apartment. TSH told KEYS to take his property and leave her home. TSH reported that she found an expensive pair of sneakers missing, so she confronted KEYS about stealing her shoes. TSH said they got into a physical altercation after KEYS tried to leave without returning the shoes. During the struggle, TSH reported that KEYS pushed her face first into a pile of clothing then held her down by the neck from behind with both hands.

TSH stated that she was unable to breathe. TSH said that KEYS went down to the living room and threw her iPad into her television, which damaged both items. TSH followed KEYS to the main level of the apartment and then went into the bathroom and vomited due to being strangled. Afterwards, TSH said she went into the hallway and began calling 911. While on the phone with dispatch, TSH said KEYS came out and began strangling her again to prevent her from speaking with dispatch. TSH reported that KEYS strangled her for approximately three minutes then left in his brother’s vehicle as his brother was in the vehicle waiting for KEYS. TSH vomited several more times in the hallway after being strangled by KEYS. On April 22, the investigator contacted TSH by phone for follow-up investigation.

TSH told the investigator that she wanted to drop the charges against KEYS and did not want to provide a statement to him. KEYS is currently in MN DOC custody at MCF – Faribault with an anticipated release date of February 22, 2027.
