Police are searching for Vance Luther Boelter, the suspect in the shooting of two Democratic state politicians from Minnesota.

Minnesota Sen. John Hoffman's wife is speaking out for the first time since a shooting injured the couple at their home early Saturday morning.

The targeted shootings of two Minnesota state lawmakers this weekend underscore a grim trend: An increasingly volatile political climate has left state and local officials more exposed than ever to threats and harassment.

Questions and misinformation have spread on social media and other platforms about the political views of the man suspected of assassinating Minnesota House DFL leader Melissa Hortman, and any connections that alleged gunman had to Gov.

Amid the horror and senseless violence in the shootings of Rep. Melissa Hortman and Sen. John Hoffman and their spouses, there are stories of heroism.

"Hi everyone! I’m looking to get back into the U.S. Food Industry and I'm pretty open to positions," Boelter wrote on LinkedIn last month.

The names of some congressional officials from the state were listed in the suspected shooter’s papers.

Lawmakers on Sunday continued to reel from the shooting of two Democratic Minnesota state legislators in their homes that led to the death of one and her husband, contemplating a previously unthinkable world where democratically-elected representatives need full-time security details to protect them from the public.
