Authorities are investigating an apparent homicide after an SUV was noticed parked in the middle of a Wisconsin cornfield. The Dunn County Sheriff's office received a 911 call at 2:18 PM on Sunday afternoon saying the SUV had been found and reported the deaths.

This happened in the Town of Sheridan in northern Dunn County. It's north of Menomonie, Wisconsin and east of the Twin Cities Metro.

The Dunn County Sheriff's office is investigating the crime. They believe that the victims have no ties to the area. They were found in a black SUV with Minnesota license plates, and there may have been another darker colored SUV related to the incident.

Anyone in the area that has information related to it, or may have seen a black SUV with Minnesota plates in the area to call them at 715-232-1348.
