The Minnesota Twins and Minnesota Lynx paid tribute to the state politicians and their spouses who were shot by a suspect allegedly impersonating a police officer overnight.

Democratic Sen. John Hoffman, his wife, and House Democratic leader Melissa Hortman were injured in what the governor describes as targeted shootings.

Police first responded to a call of a shooting at Hoffman's home in Champlin at around 2 a.m. Saturday, Drew Evans, the superintendent of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, said in the briefing.

Before Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman became a nationally recognized figure following her fatal shooting death alongside her husband Saturday morning — an act public officials have called an act of “political violence” — she was revered by colleagues as a dedicated public servant.

According to the website for his company Praetorian Guard Security Services, Boelter is listed as director of security patrols.
