One man died after an apparent assault Friday afternoon in Chanhassen and an individual identified as a “person of interest” in his death was later found dead in Minneapolis, authorities said.

A 33-year-old St. Paul man was pronounced dead at the scene on a garage floor in the 8100 block of Audubon Road after his parents had found him and called 911 to report an “unknown medical” incident shortly before 4 p.m., the Carver County Sheriff’s Office said.

“The evidence suggests a violent assault occurred,” Sheriff Jason Kamerud said in a news release.

The sheriff said the second person was found dead at a home in Minneapolis.

“This appears to be an isolated incident, and there is no evidence to suggest further danger to the public,” Kamerud said.

An autopsy on the man found dead in Chanhassen was scheduled.

Officials have not yet released either person’s name and said multiple agencies were investigating.
