Vance Boelter, 57, was arrested after a manhunt for allegedly shooting and killing former Minnesota Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband. He seriously injured another couple, State Rep. John Hoffman and his wife, in what authorities describe as politically motivated attacks. Boelter reportedly maintained a handwritten hit list with over 70 potential targets, including politicians and abortion providers. Wendy Thomas, who spotted Boelter hiding in grass near her friend's house, alerted police, expressing shock and fear during the encounter, which heightened community anxiety about the ongoing violence.
I didn't think he was in the area at all. I thought he was long gone... And then I started freaking out.
The shootings have been described as politically motivated and police said that Boelter had created a handwritten hit list of over 70 targets.
