Federal prosecutors said Monday that the man charged with shooting two Minnesota state lawmakers and their spouses, killing one couple, went to two other legislators’ homes that night, bent on more bloodshed. One of them was away vacationing with her family, and 57-year-old suspect Vance Boelter bolted from the other house after police arrived, acting U.S. Attorney Joseph Thompson said.

He is scheduled to appear in court Monday afternoon. “It is no exaggeration to say that his crimes are the stuff of nightmares,” Thompson said. “Boelter stalked his victims like prey,” then went to their homes, told them he was a police officer, “and shot...

A drunk driver crashed into an SUV in Brooklyn early Sunday, sparking a chain-reaction crash that left two of his passenger and two NYPD cops hurt, police sources said. The intoxicated 24-year-old driver of a black 2024 Chevrolet Suburban was zipping north on Coney Island Ave. in Sheepshead Bay when he slammed into a 2022 Volvo XC90 headed west on Avenue U about 2:10 a.m., cops said.

Frankie Montas says he feels fine physically. For the Mets right-hander, that’s the most important takeaway through five starts in his rehab assignment for a strained right lat. But the results on the field have been less encouraging. Montas struggled again on Friday night with Triple-A Syracuse, surrendering eight runs in 1.2 innings against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He now owns a 13.17 ERA over 13.2 innings with High-A Brooklyn and Triple-A Syracuse. “Tough start, but I felt pretty good,” Montas, 32, said Saturday at Citi Field. “The ball is coming out good. Just working on a couple things that I need to work on.” The Mets hoped Montas would throw 80 to 85 pitches during Friday’s start against the Yankees’ Triple-A affiliate, but he threw only 53 before he was lifted with two outs in the second inning. Montas said he “would’ve loved to get more pitches in,” but manager Carlos Mendoza said leaving the right-hander in the game would have put him at risk. Montas threw 32 pitches i...

The City Council voted 51-0 Wednesday to pass a bill designed to expand access to the overdose prevention drug Narcan in the city jails — a response, in part, to the fallout from the 10 OD deaths behind bars in 2022 and 2023. The bill, Intro 206-B, would require the Department of Correction to provide Narcan training to all uniformed officers, make Narcan training available to people in custody, make sure Narcan is stocked in all housing units, and provide overdose prevention kits to those leaving jail. The bill, which now goes to the Mayor’s Office for approval, also requires DOC to supply annual statistics on training and use of Narcan. During the surge in overdose deaths, investigators found instances where Narcan was not available or where officers did not administer it or had not been trained in its use, a Council spokesman said. “Today, the Council is taking a critical step to saving lives in our city jails by passing my Intro 206-B, which ensures that basic, proven, life-...

A peculiar tension exists inside nearly every frame created by writer-director Wes Anderson. The geometric visual preoccupation of the framing; the actors, sometimes in motion but more frequently motionless; the manifestation of storytelling as a series of the prettiest shoebox dioramas in modern cinema: It’s more than a style or a look to Anderson. It’s his way of seeing the world through a lens of comic stoicism, right at the edge of art-installation territory.

Boston Red Sox rookie Hunter Dobbins came with fighting words. Ahead of his first-ever game against the Yankees , the right-handed Dobbins didn’t hide his disdain for the team in the Bronx. “If the Yankees were the last team to give me a contract, I’d retire,” Dobbins, 25, told the Boston Herald before his start in Sunday night’s series finale at Yankee Stadium. Dobbins hails from Bryan, Texas, and while he didn’t grow up rooting for a specific team, his father was a diehard Red Sox fan. The Red Sox drafted Dobbins in the eighth round of the 2021 MLB Draft. “I think whoever I was playing with or whoever I would have been drafted by, I’d still hate the Yankees, so Sunday should be a fun one,” Dobbins told the newspaper. “I’m hoping I hit a career-high in velo or something.” Dobbins’ comments caught the attention of Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. , who on Sunday advocated on social media for more trash talk in baseball. “It adds a little bit of fun,” Chisholm later said in...

A Mafia killer who whacked other members of his own Colombo crime family hit crew— and shoved the severed penis of one murder victim into the dead man’s mouth — will not get compassionate release, a federal judge in Brooklyn ruled. John Pappa, 50, won’t get a break on his two life sentences plus 65 years for four gangland murders in the 1990s, Brooklyn Federal Court Judge Pamela Chen ruled, describing his crimes as “brutal and senseless” and suggesting the remorse he showed at a hearing last year was a cynical act. “The court cannot shake the impression, after observing and listening to defendant over the course of the two-hour April proceeding, that he feels no remorse about committing the four murders nor empathy for the victims or their families,” Chen wrote. “Defendant’s statements … felt hollow and performative.” Pappa, who has the creed “Morte prima di disonore” — meaning “death before dishonor” — tattooed across his back, committed the 12th and final murde r of the bloody Co...

A 21-year-old man shot to death in a Bronx park less than three months after being released from Rikers Island recently bragged on Instagram he “made it out” and “beat the odds.” Irvin Provitt was about to start classes in a court-ordered education program through the Fortune Society, hoping to resolve a pair of ongoing robbery cases after spending more than a year in jail, his lawyer Paul London told the Daily News. “The only thing he wanted was to get get out of jail because he feared Rikers,” London said. “He was a kid. He was 21 … He still needed to grow up.” But all Provitt’s future dreams were dashed when he was shot in the head in Crotona Park near E. 173rd St. about 12:45 p.m. May 30. “He was a young kid who was trying to turn his life around. He was about to be enrolled in a program,” London said. “To hear that happened was devastating. To lose a young person like that is not a way to lose a young person.” Irvin Provitt was fatally shot in the head in Crotona Park nea...
