Vance Boelter, 57, is accused of posing as a police officer and fatally shooting former Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in their home early Saturday in the northern Minneapolis suburbs.

A Minnesota lawmaker and her husband were shot and killed early Saturday morning in “what appears to be a politically-motivated assassination,” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said at a news conference Saturday.

Two Minnesota state lawmakers were shot in apparent "targeted" incidents on Saturday that left them in grave condition, officials said.
