Is this a bed bug #892415

Could someone please identify the bug below I found in my condo in St Paul? I know the photo is not perfect, but I hope it is detailed enough. It is a bit bigger than 1/8 of an inch. It was dead at the time I found it. Our pest control company said it was a stink bug, I don't think so and it looks very similar to a bed bug and I would like a second opinion, if someone is willing to give me one!
Kindest regards,
Ramsey County Minnesota
