Suspicious death under investigation in Greenvale Township

The Dakota County Sheriff's Office is investigating a suspicious death after three people were seen leaving a home where a person was found dead inside.

According to Chief Deputy Joe Leko, around 4:45 p.m. Friday, police responded to a call in the 31500 block of Foliage Avenue in Greenvale Township. The caller reported they went to a home to check on someone, but when they arrived three people ran out and drove off in a vehicle.

Inside the home, police found a deceased male. The cause of death is under investigation.

Police later tracked down the suspect vehicle in nearby Northfield. The three suspects ran away, but police arrested two of them - a male and a female. 

Authorities are still searching for the third suspect, a male who may be armed. The suspect is described as a male wearing dark clothes, about 6 feet tall, 155 pounds with a ponytail with hair shaved on each side. Northfield residents are asked to stay vigilant.

Saturday, the Dakota County Sheriff's Office said the suspects and victim knew each other and that the public is not in any danger. The Sheriff's Office did not say whether the third suspect had been arrested, however. 

The case remains under investigation.
