[57-year-old man has been arrested
in the US state of Minnesota on suspicion
of killing a Democratic state lawmaker
and her husband.
The arrest on Sunday night was the
culmination of a huge two-day
manhunt following the deaths of Melissa Hortman,
a Minnesota Democrat,
and her husband Mark.
State Governor Tim Walz called it a
"politically motivated assassination".
Police said Vance Luther Boelter was armed
at the time of his arrest in a rural area
west of Minneapolis, but gave himself
up peacefully when challenged.
The suspect is also alleged to have shot
and wounded Democratic State Senator
John Hoffman, and his wife Yvette,
who are both now awake in hospital.
Mrs Hoffman said on Sunday
that both felt "incredibly lucky to be alive."]
