3 Men Found Dead In Pickup Truck After Apparent Murder-Suicide: Bloomington Police

BLOOMINGTON, MN — Three men were found dead Wednesday in the parking lot of a Bloomington business complex, the apparent victims of a murder-suicide, according to police.

“There is no danger to the public,” Chief Booker Hodges said in a video posted online by the Bloomington Police Department. “What we believe took place here was a murder-suicide.”

Officers responded shortly before 8:30 p.m. to a report of a person slumped over in a pickup truck at the France Place business center at the intersection of France Avenue South and Minnesota Drive, Hodges said. When they arrived, the officers discovered three men in the truck, who had been fatally shot, according to Hodges.

The victims included a father and son, as well as a business associate, Hodges said, adding none of them were from Bloomington. Their identities are pending release by the Hennepin County medical examiner’s office, according to Hodges.

The investigation is ongoing, Hodges said, with additional details to come.
