The death of a man in his 30s whose body was found in his north Minneapolis home is being treated as suspicious, police said Thursday.

Family members told authorities shortly after 11 p.m. Wednesday that they had not heard from the man for a while and went to check on him at his home in the 3900 block of N. Lyndale Avenue. They went inside and found him dead.

Investigators are stopping short of declaring the case a homicide, but they are treating it as one until further evidence brings some clarity, said police spokesman John Elder.

The man's identity has not been released, and police have not said how long he may have been dead.
