Boelter, 57, is wanted for allegedly shooting dead Democratic State Representative Melissa Hortman and wounding his Democratic State Senator John Hoffman on Saturday.

He is facing both state and federal charges, with authorities announcing on Sunday that there is both a 'nationwide warrant' for Boelter's arrest for the murders and attempted murder at the state level as well as a federal warrant for 'unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.'

Hortman and her husband Mark were killed at their home in Champlin, in northern Minneapolis, while Hoffman and his wife Yvette were wounded at their house in nearby Brooklyn Park.

It is believed Boelter, a Trump supporter, was motivated to kill the two Democrats due to their support for abortion rights after police uncovered a hit list of about 70 people from his car Saturday morning.

Most of the names on that list were Democrats or people with ties to Planned Parenthood or the abortion rights movement, CNN reports.

A second hit list with more than a dozen new names was also found during a search of one of Boelter's homes on Saturday as police continued their manhunt for the suspect.

Authorities located Boelter's car, a Buick that appeared to be dumped in Faxon Township, on Sunday and found a cowboy hot lying on the ground that was identical to one Boelter was wearing in CCTV images released by the FBI.

By around 4pm, a four-door dark blue Buick Regal sedan was seen being removed from the search area on a flatbed truck.

The development came after state troopers equipped with rifles and full body armor went house to house searching yards, outbuildings and garages.

Minnesota State Patrol, SWAT teams, and a US Marshals Fugitive Task Force arrived in a dozen or more vehicles including heavily armored trucks about 11am on Sunday.

The convoy included officers from the Bloomington Bomb Squad, one of four specialist units on call across the state to detect and defuse explosives.

Hundreds more police set up a command post in Green Isle, near Boelter and his wife Jenny's home, to coordinate the manhunt.

The search area includes around 120 acres of fields and woodland belonging to Brian Liebhard, 65.

He said he was having trouble sleeping and was on his porch alone at 2.30am when he heard gunshots - about eight hours before the police arrived.

His nephew later told him he'd found a dark Buick abandoned in a secluded side road along with a cowboy hat.

'I heard two shots. I have no idea if it’s related to this,' he previously told DailyMail.com.

Liebhard said he went to church on Sunday morning and came back and found access to his property blocked by a police cordon.

He gave officers permission to begin an extensive search of his land, which includes several abandoned, crumbling homes and barns.

The area is waterlogged and difficult to traverse without sinking deep into the mud, Liebhard added.

'My daughter brought up where this guy lived and said "Dad he’s only four miles from us,"' he said.

'I've never seen him myself. As far as I know they are still searching for him there.'

As the afternoon wore on, locals gathered at the cordon to exchange theories and gossip about the manhunt.

'So the hat is just sat there on the side of the road?' said one. 'It’s too convenient. It's obviously a decoy. You fellas can't see the wood for the trees.'
