Minnesota Legislators John Hoffman and Melissa Hortman Involved in Shootings, Reportedly

According to CB S Minnesota sources, early morning gunfire targeted the residences of two Minnesota legislators.

The incidents occurred at the homes of Democratic-Farmer-Labor (DFL) Senator John Hoffman and DFL Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman, located in Champlin and Brooklyn Park. Currently, details regarding any individuals injured and their health status remain unknown.

There is no immediate information about the assailant or assailants responsible. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) agents are actively involved in the manhunt, as confirmed by WCCO.

Lawmakers in the area received alerts this morning, instructing heightened security measures. The Minnesota Sheriff's Association's executive director described the shooter in a social media post as "a cruel coward masquerading as a guardian, who targeted the homes of two of Minnesota's elected representatives."

Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota announced, early Saturday, that he has been informed about the "ongoing situation" and has mobilized the State Emergency Operations Center.

In an online statement, he affirmed that local law enforcement agencies in Champlin and Brooklyn Park are fully supported by statewide resources.

The investigation is being spearheaded by Minnesota police departments along with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, as stated by officials.

Governor Walz plans to provide more details during a press briefing later today.

CBS News has reached out for comments from the FBI and additional agencies.
