Minks are dastardly little demons. I know exactly how you feel, earlier this week a mink too a significant chunk out of my flock.Luckily while it was trying to attack another bird, it didn't see me and I was able to kill it.
The best thing I can suggest is having someone set a live trap, and as @Kessel23 suggested, drown it in water. It is inhumane, but it'll get the job done.
And I suggest you bury hardware cloth along your coop and run to thwart new predators. Do you have an idea where it got in?
