Police searching for evidence

What we know:

In a press release on Friday, the Brooklyn Park Police Department said there will be a police presence in the area, but there is no danger to the public. 

Detectives are conducting a second area canvass of the golf course for any additional evidence related to these recent crimes. SkyFOX captured authorities and divers searching a pond on the course. It's unclear how long authorities plan to search the area, or exactly what they are looking for. 

The search comes in the wake of an overnight break-in earlier this week at the home of late Rep. Melissa Hortman, which happened just days after she and her husband, Mark, were fatally shot. 

Police say the family removed valuables from the residence on Tuesday, and it doesn't appear that anything is missing.
