APPLE VALLEY, Minnesota — Neighbor Collin Prochnow went to check on a neighbor’s house Saturday afternoon after it appeared they\u00a0hadn’t been home for weeks.<\/p>\n
With packages and mail piling up on the house’s doorstep, Prochnow rang the doorbell and only heard the family’s dog barking.<\/p>\n
He looked through a window and saw three bodies on the ground with a black handgun near by.<\/p>\n
“Shock. You have something that happens like that next door and you don’t really know when it happened. And the little girl, why did they have to take the little girl with them when they do things like that?” said Prochnow.<\/p>\n
Though the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office has not yet identified the bodies, the neighbors identified the family as David Crowley, his wife, Komel Crowley, and their five-year-old daughter.<\/p>\n
According to Prochnow, David Crowley was a filmaker that wrote and directed a recent film about the militarization of the U.S. called “Gray State.”<\/p>\n
Komel Crowley was a self-employed dietitian.<\/p>\n
The police believe the deaths to be a murder suicide.<\/p>\n
