National sources (including AP) are reporting that organizers have canceled No Kings events across the state. This is incorrect, as confirmed by local/state media, and from multiple sources present at protests right now. (1/3) apnews.com/live/trump-m... www.startribune.com/brooklyn-par...

Minnesota organizers cancel their ‘No Kings’ rallies after lawmakers were shot

State Patrol Col. Christina Bogojevic asked people “out of an abundance of caution” not to attend any of the “No Kings” protests that were scheduled for across the state on Saturday.

The warnings come after two Democratic lawmakers and their spouses were shot. Melissa Hortman, a former Minnesota House Speaker, and her spouse were shot and killed early Saturday in their Brooklyn Park home. A second state lawmaker, Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, were shot multiple times in Champlin and were wounded. Officials said the shootings were politically motivated.

Bogojevic said authorities didn’t have any direct evidence that the protests would be targeted, but said the suspect had some “No Kings” flyers in their car.

Organizers announced that all of the protests across the state were canceled.

Indivisible Twin Cities, one of the groups organizing local No Kings Day protests, said they still planned to demonstrate.

“We are horrified by these acts of unspeakable political violence. We mourn with the state and the families. As of now, we are proceeding with the No Kings event. We think it’s important to gather peacefully.”
