[TheProle]

Police were searching for the gunman responsible for the attacks on the Democratic legislators. Writings found inside a fake police car recovered at one of the shooting scenes mentioned the names of multiple lawmakers and other officials, Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley said.

Two people familiar with the matter identified the suspect being sought as 57-year-old Vance Boelter. The people could not publicly discuss details of the ongoing investigation and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

16. Can you imagine?

[allegorical oracle]

13. IF this is the guy...he's CEO of the Praetorian Guard in MN. FYI...

The Praetorian Guard (Latin: cohortes praetoriae) was the imperial guard of the Imperial Roman army that served various roles for the Roman emperor including being a bodyguard unit, counterintelligence, crowd control and gathering military intelligence.

So does this individual swing left or right?

12. Besides the politicians on his list of targets:

CNN further reported that the names also included abortion providers and pro-abortion rights advocates. A law enforcement official told the network that authorities also discovered a Father’s Day card addressed to the suspect inside a bag filled with ammunition.

A law enforcement source has identified a person of interest in the Minnesota shooting to the BBC's US partner CBS.

According to CBS and other US media, investigators are looking for Vance Luther Boelter, a man in his 50s who is from Minnesota.

Police found a list of more than 50 possible targets in his vehicle, CBS reports, including officials in Minnesota and beyond, along with abortion rights activists. According to CBS, there were also fliers for the anti-Trump No Kings protests planned for cities across the country today.

18. I reckon he had the fliers to he could find more people to kill.

[ForgedCrank]

14. So he was

also going around stealing "No Kings" flyers too? If they have info, they should be sharing it with the public so he has nowhere to run or hide. I really hope they catch this guy fast. I am very worried that he will also target the protests or others.
The worst part of trying to understand crazy people is that normal people can't comprehend how they think, so no matter what, it never makes sense in the end.

[allegorical oracle]

17. Verified that Vance Boelter is the suspect being sought -- multiple sources. Lives in

Green Isle, MN.

19. Red Lion Group in the Congo? Security?

[allegorical oracle]

20. Would put money on his exaggeration of his work history. This type of guy invariably

overestimates -- and overstates-- his credentials. We have one of them occupying the WH.

[muriel_volestrangler]

21. "security and fishing outfit"

Mrs Boelter also said her husband had a business partner in the north-western US state of Washington and that they ran a security company and "fishing outfit" called "Red Lion" in Congo, Africa.

Yep, exaggeration.
