The bodies of five people and a dog were found at a Minnesota home Wednesday in what a police official called “an unimaginable tragedy.”

The Duluth Police Department said the unidentified people are related.

A suspect was among the dead, a police spokeswoman said.

It is not clear how five people died. The spokeswoman, Kate Van Daele, declined to comment on the cause of death.
