Minnesota Gunman on Run Wife Stopped with Weapons, Passports

Authorities stopped Jenny Boelter, wife of Vance Boelter, the suspect accused of killing Minnesota State Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband and attempting to assassinate State Senator John Hoffman and his wife, discovering a weapon, ammunition, cash, and passports in her car near Onamia. The traffic stop occurred about eight hours after the shootings in Brooklyn Park and Champlin, Minnesota, and it remains unclear whether the stop was random or part of a police tracking effort. Jenny Boelter was detained and questioned but not arrested, while Vance Boelter, a Trump supporter, was apprehended later reportedly still armed. The Boelters lived together on a rural property in Sibley County and both had previously worked under Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. The shootings involved fatal attacks on Rep. Hortman and her husband and serious injuries to Senator Hoffman and his wife, with law enforcement engaging the suspect in a gunfire exchange. President Donald Trump responded to the incident by condemning the violence and calling it a 'terrible' ordeal.
