The shootings took place about 9 p.m. Friday at the home where McHugh lives with his elderly mother, the newspaper said. McHugh was arrested nearby following a short vehicle pursuit and is expected to be charged Monday.
Two women were dead at the scene, while a man died at Regions Hospital Saturday and the surviving family member, a woman, was in stable condition, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported.
