06/16/25: Joel Heitkamp is joined in the KFGO studio by Bill Werner from the Minnesota News Network to talk about the assassination of MN State Representative Melissa Hortman. 

FROM KFGO NEWS: 

The man suspected of killing a Minnesota lawmaker and wounding another crawled to officers in surrender Sunday after they located him in the woods near his home, bringing an end to a massive, nearly two-day search that put the entire state on edge.

Vance Boelter was arrested and charged with two counts of murder and two of attempted murder. He is accused of posing as a police officer and fatally shooting former Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in their home early Saturday in the northern Minneapolis suburbs.
