A former appointee of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is being sought by police in connection with the fatal shooting of a state lawmaker, according to reports.
Police are searching for Vance Luther Boelter, 57, who was appointed by Walz in 2019 to serve a four year stint on the Governor’s Workforce Development Board, sources told The New York Post.
It comes after an assailant is thought to have impersonated a police officer when they entered the Champlin residence of Senator John Hoffman and his wife early Saturday, shooting both and leaving them critically injured.
The shooter then proceeded to the home of former Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman, where she and her husband were fatally shot.
Local police, sheriff's deputies, and the FBI have launched an extensive manhunt.
During a Saturday morning press conference, officials said they are investigating the possibility of multiple shooters, however no one is in custody.
Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley said the suspect's vehicle contained a 'manifesto' and a list of targets, including both lawmakers, according to The New York Times.
The first shooting occurred just after 2am at Hoffman's home in Champlin, about 20 miles from Minneapolis. Hoffman and his wife were shot multiple times, KSTP reported.

Boelter also lists himself on LinkedIn as being the CEO of Red Lion Group since 2021. He said the group does “private business projects” in “the Democratic Republic of Congo in central Africa.” Just a month ago Boelter said he was looking to get back into the U.S. food industry.
These MAGA terrorists must be stopped!
Tranny?
the DNC and Deep state have the list, and will kill
because there is, and never has been, accountability.
this shooter was just paid.
One of Tiny Timmy Tampon’s boys? Yikes.

So, not MAGANAZIFASCISTPROUDBOYS?
Check a local protest and that is where he’ll be. Don’t be surprised if they go to arrest him they get pushback.
his background is strange. it could be he was just on the grift for USAID money or...he could have been some kind of CIA cutout.
Wow. Thanks.
She’s an amazing researcher.
Vance Boelter was supposedly politically active. Has anyone found data on his POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS?
I looked on one site and found nothing.
Looks like this guy wanted to stir up a little Civil War.
“””You’ve got to be kidding me? Walz just issued a statement blaming Trump…”100%”!”””
I have been watching msnbc. The “experts” have no idea who the suspect might be. They say whoever it is must be a neo-nazi or a member of a militia or some group like that.

RW commentariat is claiming the suspect is Vance Boelter, which, if true, would def be in keeping w/ my theory. Peep his work exp on LinkedIn. “Red Lion Group”, based in the DRC. Remember the coup there last May that tied to Israeli intel, the US, & the vape industry? 👀
Maybe Tim can convince his buddy to stand down before he kills any more Democrat politicians for not being liberal enough.
This should be a wake-up call for any Democrats left with a brain - things have gone too far, this country desperately NEEDS law and order. No politician in America should be assassinated. Nobody deserves to have their car burned down. But there are a large number of ultra-liberal Democrats who don’t agree with those statements.
might be his daughter?
