CHICAGO — A Chicago radio station is reporting that a daughter of former Minnesota Attorney General Mike Hatch was found dead in her condo, an apparent suicide.

WBBM-AM reports 27-year-old Anne Hatch was pronounced dead Sunday. The station says the Cook County medical examiner’s office confirmed Hatch’s death was a suicide.

Police say Hatch was found in her apartment on Chicago’s Miracle Mile by a building employee.

The Hatch family released a statement Monday, saying their daughter Anne “died unexpectedly” in Chicago.

In 2004, Anne Hatch and her older sister, Elizabeth, were arrested following a confrontation with a police officer outside a Chicago nightclub.

The Hatch sisters said police officers used excessive force. The sisters were acquitted in June 2005 of battery, resisting arrest and criminal damage.
