Bismarck, N.D. – The leader of support staff for the North Dakota Legislative Council says they removed some lawmaker information from a public website after last weekend’s deadly lawmaker shootings in Minnesota.
Director John Bjornson says he took down addresses as a precaution after hearing about the shootings on Saturday.
57-year old Vance Boelter is accused of impersonating a police officer to gain access to homes, killing State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband and wounding State Senator John Hoffman and his wife.
Bjornson says a long-term policy on lawmaker information will be discussed during a committee meeting next week.
