Minnesota State Rep. and Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, were killed Saturday in what officials are calling "targeted" attacks.

State Senator John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, were gunned down at their home early on Saturday morning, but lived. Melissa Hortman - the top Democratic legislator in the state House - and her husband, Mark, were shot and killed. Yvette Hoffman said in a statement that she and her husband John were "devastated" by the Hortmans' deaths.
