A Minnesota man charged with murdering two people and wounding two others allegedly had his sights on various public figures, including members of Congress from Detroit.
The Detroit Free Press reported on Monday that a list found in the suspect's vehicle included the names of a handful of Congressmen and women.
57-year-old Vance Boelter has been charged with the murder of Minnesota State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, and the wounding of State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette, in two separate incidents Saturday night in Minneapolis.
The list included four US Representatives from the Detroit area, and a US Senator, all Democrats. Hortman and Hoffman were also Democrats.
The representatives were Debbie Dingell, Haley Stevens, Rashida Tlaib, and Shri Thanedar. The Senator was Elissa Slotkin, according to the Free Press.
A Congresswoman from Grand Rapids, Hillary Scholten, announced that she had postponed a town hall meeting set for Monday night in Muskegon after her name also appeared on the list.
The paper also reported that Boelter also had leaflets for "No Kings" rallies, which took place at hundreds of locations across the U.S., drawing thousands of people in demonstrations against President Donald Trump and his policies.
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer condemned the violence on X over the weekend.
"The shooting of two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses is yet another horrific act in the continued rise of political violence in America. We must call out this violence, no matter who it’s aimed at or where it originates," Whitmer tweeted. "The loss of State Rep. Hortman and her husband is a tragedy, and we are pulling for the recovery of Sen. Hoffman and his wife. This must stop."
Trump, who is in Alberta attending the G-7 Summit this week, also responded to the shootings in Minnesota.
"Such horrific violence will not be tolerated in the United States of America," said Trump on his platform, Truth Social. "God Bless the great people of Minnesota, a truly great place."
