Police catch suspected killer of Minnesota lawmaker: US media

[WASHINGTON]  Law enforcement in Minnesota have caught the suspected killer of a Democratic state lawmaker and her husband, US media reported late on Sunday, ending a nearly two-day manhunt.

The suspect, 57-year-old Vance Boelter, was captured alive in a rural area where a large contingent of local, state and federal agents had been searching throughout the day, the New York Times and CBS News reported, citing unnamed officials.

“There was no use of force by any member of law enforcement that was out there, and the suspect was taken into custody without an use of force,” Minnesota State Patrol Lieutenant Colonel Jeremy Geiger told a press conference. AFP
