Boelter, 57, was taken into custody on Sunday night after he was located by police near his home in Sibley County, Minnesota.
Suspect in the assassination of two Minnesota state lawmakers, Vance Boelter, has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder as well as two counts of attempted murder among other charges.
Boelter, 57, was taken into custody on Sunday night after he was located by police near his home in Sibley County, Minnesota.
Posting a photo of him getting arrested, the sheriff’s office wrote, “The face of evil. After relentless and determined police work, the killer is now in custody. Thanks to the dedication of multiple agencies working together along with support from the community, justice is one step closer.”
In Minnesota, second-degree murder is murder done without premeditation, however, a grand jury may indict him for first-degree murder later on, according to Fox News analyst and former congressman Trey Gowdy.
Early on Saturday morning, Boelter allegedly posed as a cop in a vehicle that he made appear as a police car and is accused of fatally shooting State Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, early Saturday morning at their home in Brooklyn Park. He is believed to have critically injured State Sen. John Hoffman as well as his wife, Yvette, during the rampage.
