SUSPECT CAPTURED: Vance Boelter, the suspect in the fatal shootings of a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband, as well as the woundings of another lawmaker and his wife, has been captured.

It allegedly took months of planning, but the suspect in deadly attacks on Minnesota lawmakers unfolded over a roughly 90-minute time span.
Federal prosecutors revealed in a six-count complaint that Vance Boelter has been charged with murder, stalking, and firearms violations. The Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Minnesota, Joe Thompson, said on Monday during a press conference that “It is no exaggeration to say that his crimes are the stuff of nightmares.”

Police are searching for a 57-year-old man after the killings of a state lawmaker and her husband, and the shooting of a state senator in a separate attack.
