Minnesota lawmaker shootings trigger nationwide security alarms
Authorities hunt 57-year-old Vance Boelter after he fatally shot Democratic state rep Melissa Hoffman in Brooklyn Park and wounded Sen John Hoffman in Champlin. Police fear he posed as an officer as hundreds of officers sweep the Minneapolis suburb. Evidence includes AK style rifles and a security company tied to Boelter. The attack spurred shelter orders and canceled protests as officials urge calm and accountability.
