Roseville police: 1 dead, 4 hurt; 17-year-old suspect in custody

Roseville police say a homicide suspect is in custody after a shelter-in-place order was broadly issued Tuesday morning.

According to Roseville Police Chief Erika Scheider, who spoke during a news conference Tuesday afternoon, police responded to the 1100 block of Ryan Avenue at about 10:23 a.m. on a report of an assault in progress.

Upon arrival, officers found one person they pronounced dead at the scene, as well as two people with serious injuries and two people with minor injuries. The suspect, later described as a 17-year-old male, had left the scene by the time officers arrived.

Scheider said a preliminary investigation revealed the suspect, the person found dead, and the four people found injured are all family members.

The shelter in place alert was accidentally sent to all of Ramsey County rather than just the immediate area

1. I was taking a zoom class this morning from an instructor who lives in St. Paul,

a little distance west of Roseville. She got the alert on her phone, to the effect that there was a homicide suspect on the loose in the area. That was kind of exciting for a zoom class. She got another alert a while later when they caught the perp.

2. Our office is right in the alert area

The real one, not the broad. Our phones must have gone off seven times.

It kept us awake.
