If that is the case, the reason he had an SUV with flashing lights and he was wearing a badge and gun is because he helps run an armed security firm named Praetorian Security Services. 

🚨BREAKING: Dr. Vance Boelter, the Tim Walz appointee who is the suspect in the sh00ting of Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman, is the Director of Security Patrols at a security firm in MN.

This could explain his “law enforcement-like” vehicle & uniform.

The reason why the car APPEARED to be a police car is that it PROBABLY looked like this:

A former appointee of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is being sought in connection with the assassination of a state lawmaker and the shooting of another, police sources said.

Vance Luther Boelter allegedly posed as a police officer when he shot Sen. John Hoffman and his wife in their Champlin home early Saturday, leaving them seriously injured before moving on to former Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman’s house — where he is believed to have slaughtered her and her husband, sources told The Post.

Vance Boelter, the suspect in today’s shootings, was the CEO of an international NGO called the Red Lion Group. But I couldn’t find any photographs or digital records of its work, only a generic website.

The Red Lion Group appears to have run out of funding a month or two ago,… https://t.co/ScqoWC5EkF pic.twitter.com/INAcqFhisW

But I couldn’t find any photographs or digital records of its work, only a generic website.The Red Lion Group appears to have run out of funding a month or two ago, as that is when he started looking for executive-level roles.

It has been confirmed by local media that the suspect is Lance Boelter, who is associated with the security firm.

Apparently Boelter was previously associated with The Red Lions Group, a security firm. 

UPDATE:

All information at this point is preliminary and hence not 100% reliable. I am not certain that DataRepublican is identifying the right group or not. 

The left has been trying to wrap Boelter around MAGA, but he was appointed to gubernatorial commissions by both Mark Dayton and current governor Tim Walz. 

We know definitively that Boelter is a far right, MAGA, left wing loon. He both loves and hates Trump. He targeted the victims because they are Democrats. Also because they voted against Democrats.

It’s crystal clear, people. I don’t know why you’re having trouble keeping up. pic.twitter.com/7MLTslpVl2

Boelter was also a minister who tried to convert Hamas militants to Christianity. Bizarre.

Fourth image shows he indeed volunteered for the Governors Workforce Development Board in Minnesota.

A PERSONAL NOTE:

I happen to know Hortman a bit, and my wife, who worked at the Minnesota House for about 10 years, worked with her as a Republican staffer. She and the legislators with whom she worked met with Hortman weekly during the legislative sessions. Now my wife works at the Minnesota Senate, so she knows both of the victims who were legislators. She does not know the spouses. 

This hits home for us. 

This guy?

That photo comes from Minnesota Africans United. Boelter did work in the Congo, suggesting the link to Africa.
