A suspect has been arrested in connection with a suspicious death in Brooklyn Park, police said Friday.

The 19-year-old woman taken into custody has not been charged, according to Deputy Chief Mark Bruley.

She is a suspect in the death of a 32-year-old man whose name has not been released, Bruley said in a news release. The two were known to each other, and no other suspects are being sought, he said.

Police were called to a townhouse in the 7300 block of 72nd Lane just after 10 a.m. Thursday on a report of an unresponsive man. They found the victim dead in the residence.

The case remains under investigation by Brooklyn Park police and the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office.

The Hennepin County medical examiner will release the victim's name.
