A manhunt was underway on Sunday for a gunman who shot two Democratic state lawmakers in Minnesota, killing Melissa Hortman and her husband and wounding the other, in what the northern US state's governor said were politically motivated attacks.
WASHINGTON:
The shootings on Saturday came as deep political divisions have riven the United States, the same day that hundreds of thousands of protesters across the country took to the streets to rally against the policies of Republican President Donald Trump.
Democratic State Representative Hortman—a former speaker of the House—and her husband Mark were killed at their home in the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Park, Governor Tim Walz announced in a news conference.
State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette were shot and wounded at their home in nearby Champlin, he said.
