ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — St. Paul police were called back to a house that was on fire shortly after they had investigated a homicide at the residence.
An adult male had suffered a gunshot wound at the house in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood Saturday afternoon. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police say investigators had finished work and left the house about 9:30 Sunday morning. About 11 a.m. police and firefighters responded to the same home after witnesses reported a fire. Officials say there have been about 170 police calls to the residence this year.
