I’ve been briefed this morning on an ongoing situation involving targeted shootings in Champlin and Brooklyn Park.
The Minnesota Department of Public Safety and local law enforcement are on the scene. We will share more information soon.

I’ve activated the State Emergency Operations Center.
Local law enforcement in Champlin and Brooklyn Park have the full resources of the State of Minnesota behind them.
We are monitoring the situation closely and will share more information soon.

Sources say Sen. John Hoffman and Rep. Melissa Hortman were shot. The suspect is a white man with brown hair wearing black body armor over a blue shirt and blue pants and he may be impersonating law enforcement. They're both Democrats in the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party. The spouses of the two Democratic lawmakers were also reportedly shot.
