Reaching the police after they leave
Hopkins police work from 1010 1st Street S. The city points people with non-emergency questions to its police records department, 952-938-8885, or to Hennepin County's non-emergency number, 952-258-5321 (City of Hopkins).
Records can tell you the case number, which an insurer or the state reimbursement board will ask for.
If it happened in an apartment
If it happened in an apartment, the building owner or manager needs to know, both to let the company in and because fluids can reach the unit or shop below. Ask the company to look at shared walls and floors, and to give the owner a written scope.
The landlord page explains what happens to the lease if the tenant has died.
