Photo Goes Viral After Suspected Minnesota Lawmaker Assassin Captured

Vance Boelter, the person suspected of shooting two Minnesota Democratic state senators and murdering one of them and her spouse, was apprehended on Sunday, according to various law enforcement officials.
Sibley County apprehended Boelter, 57, after a two-day manhunt. He reportedly assassinated Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, early Saturday morning at their Brooklyn Park home in Minneapolis before allegedly killing State Sen. John Hoffman, a Democrat, and his wife, Yvette, in their neighboring Champlin home in a connected incident.
The Sibley County Sheriff’s Office informed Fox News that Boelter “verbally” identified himself to officers looking for him in the region on Sunday evening.
“The face of evil. After relentless and determined police work, the killer is now in custody,” the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post. “Thanks to the dedication of multiple agencies working together along with support from the community, justice is one step closer.”
Brooklyn Park Police Department Chief Mark Bruley, speaking at a news conference alongside other law enforcement authorities following Boelter’s arrest, stated that the search encompassed more than 20 SWAT units. He referred to it as “the largest manhunt in the state’s history.”
Officers from multiple agencies were involved in the manhunt, which included both foot patrols and helicopter deployments.
“The suspect crawled to law enforcement teams and was placed under arrest at that point in time,” said Lieutenant Colonel Jeremy Geiger of the Minnesota State Patrol.
There was no indication that Boelter was working with anyone else, authorities said.
According to officials, Boelter had signs in his truck that proclaimed “No Kings.”
On Saturday afternoon, cities throughout the United States held “No Kings” protests to demonstrate their opposition to the Trump administration’s ICE raids.
