The Twin Cities home where Minnesota House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband were fatally shot Saturday was broken into overnight Wednesday, police say.
Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark were killed in their home in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, at about 3:30 a.m. Saturday in what Gov. Tim Walz called a “political assassination.”
Brooklyn Park police say the home had been boarded up early Sunday after investigators processed all of the evidence at the scene, and family members had removed “items of value” from the residence on Tuesday.
“It was discovered that the plywood covering the rear window of the home had been pried off and the window broken to gain entry,” police said in a statement released late Wednesday morning.
Police say crime scene investigators searched the home again, and family members say “they don’t believe anything was missing.” Police are still searching for the suspect.
