[quote=Anonymous]“Wendy Thomas and her neighbors in Green Isle, Minnesota, had been asked to remain vigilant on Sunday as law enforcement officers, aided by drones and a state police helicopter, combed the area.
They were looking for her neighbor, Vance Boelter — a man Thomas had once invited to her home for a hog roast. She said she had been stunned to learn that he was wanted in connection with two shootings at the homes of state lawmakers. So when she paid a quick visit to another neighbor’s house and saw something out of the corner of her eye while driving away, she was on high alert.
“Dad, there’s a person,” she recalled telling her father on the phone.

To her left was a man she said appeared to be wearing all black and was covered in mud. He seemed to sense her looking at him, Thomas said, and he quickly moved toward a patch of tall grass, squatting low near a culvert as if trying to hide. Thomas, 43, couldn’t tell, but she said she felt in her gut that it was Boelter, the man authorities were searching for in connection to the attacks that had killed state Rep. Melissa Hortman (D) and her husband, and critically injured state Sen. John Hoffman (D) and his wife.”
