VADNAIS HEIGHTS, Minn. -- The bodies of three young children and a woman believed to be their mother have been recovered from a Minnesota lake, and authorities say the deaths are being investigated as a homicide.
Meanwhile, the body of the children's father was found at a different location hours earlier. Names had not been released as of Saturday afternoon.

The Ramsey County Sheriff's Office said the body of the first child was recovered from the lake around 7:30 p.m. Friday. The second child's body was found just after midnight. The bodies of the third child and the woman were found around 10:30 a.m. Saturday."There's nothing more tragic than the loss of young children," Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher said at a news conference on Friday. He said he considered the deaths homicides.
