The bodies of a woman and her three children have been recovered from Vadnais Lake after a suspected murder-suicide.

RCSO Undersheriff Mike Martin has confirmed that the two remaining bodies were recovered from the lake by 11 a.m. Saturday, and that one child was found Friday evening and another just after midnight.

Martin said the bodies were an adult female and a child and that they were being transported to the medical examiner’s office for autopsy.

According to initial law enforcement dispatch audio reviewed by MN CRIME, the woman’s husband reportedly died by suicide in Maplewood on Friday morning and she then threatened to kill herself and her children.

The woman’s vehicle was pinged and located in the park, where officers began their search.

A child was recovered from the water of the lake around 7:30 p.m. and a dive team was paged to respond. Officers had CPR underway on the child at the scene and said it was unclear how long the child had been in the water.

Authorities later confirmed the child died after being pulled from the water.

Officers were shutting down the surrounding park area and a State Patrol helicopter was assisting overhead as the search continued into the evening. A civilian search and rescue unit was also assisting officers.

“A horrible set of facts appears to be developing,” Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher said. “We’re treating this as a likely triple homicide,” Fletcher said, noting the vehicle, pairs of shoes and other items were found by searchers.
