In the early morning of August 23, 2015, April Erickson Tennin, 41, was found dead in her Maplewood home after her 16-year-old daughter discovered her and called 911 about 6 a.m. The Ramsey County Medical Examiner determined April died from a single gunshot wound to the head, and investigators treated the case as a homicide.

Police quickly identified April’s husband, 31-year-old Todd Larry Tennin, as the primary suspect after the couple were reported to have been arguing shortly before the shooting. Tennin fled the scene; his abandoned vehicle was located in Brooklyn Park and a second vehicle linked to him was found in Minneapolis. He was later apprehended in the Chicago area and charged with second-degree murder. April worked in Ramsey County’s financial services division and was mother to at least three children.

If anyone knew April, her household, or has information about the events in Maplewood that morning, please come forward to share what you know.
