MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A man used a screwdriver to fatally stab his wife and their 7-year-old daughter inside a Minnesota daycare Wednesday morning before killing himself, according to a search warrant released Thursday.
The Hennepin County search warrant obtained by The ****** ociated Press identified the man as Nathan Brown, 41. It says he stabbed his wife, 41-year-old Kristen Brown, and their daughter, Evie Brown, inside the daycare that Kristen Brown operated out of the family's basement in Hopkins, a suburb of Minneapolis. He then fatally shot himself in an upstairs closet.
Hopkins police said in a statement Thursday that they are still investigating.
According to police records, a father dropping off two of his children for daycare heard screams coming from the basement. The father entered the home and initially thought Nathan Brown was performing CPR before realizing it was an attack. The witness called 911 and fled with his children and two other children.
Authorities said Wednesday that they believe Nathan Brown earlier killed a 78-year-old relative at her home in Burnsville, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) from Hopkins. Nathan Brown had recently been living there, investigators said. Police have not released the woman's identity or said how she was related to Brown.

A California couple is suing a luxury country club daycare center after they say their 23-month-old son suffered a traumatic brain injury when an employee swung him through her legs, tossed him several feet into the air and failed to catch him, according to a lawsuit.
Matthew Kittle, Elena Kittle and their minor son, identified in the complaint only as C.K., filed the lawsuit against The Bay Clubs Company, LLC in Los Angeles County Superior Court.
The lawsuit paints a disturbing picture of what the Kittle family says happened March 17, inside The Clubhouse at Bay Club El Segundo, a 14,000-square-foot childcare center advertised as a place for children to participate in supervised play and organized activities.

Surveillance video, provided to Fox News Digital by Rosen Saba, LLP, captured the heart-stopping moment a toddler was thrown into the air by a worker, crashing to the ground just before the adult fell on top of the child.

Spencer Pratt told Bill Maher in an interview released Monday that he would enforce restrictions on smoking and drug use around children if elected Los Angeles mayor, making parks, schools, daycare centers, public safety and basic city services central to his pitch as the city's mayoral race heads toward Tuesday's primary.
Maher asked Pratt on the "Club Random" podcast whether he cared about all the issues facing the city, and Pratt said his priorities began with safety, lights and potholes before turning to smoking near children.
"I care about safety, the lights being on, potholes," Pratt said. "I don’t want you smoking in front of kids at the park. You know, I’ll be enforcing if you’re smoking that in front of a kid at a swing. I’ll be getting you as mayor."
