The Minnesota Department of Human Rights will launch an investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department after filing a civil rights charge related to the death of George Floyd, who died in police custody last week. The probe, announced Tuesday by Gov. Tim Walz, will look at Minneapolis police policies and procedures over the past 10 years to determine whether the department has engaged in discriminatory practices toward people of color. "This is not about holding people personally...
In warning that "outside agitators" had infiltrated local protests over the death of George Floyd, a black man killed by Minneapolis police, state officials outlined a list of concerning developments, including cars stripped of their license plates driving around town. But at least one case charged Tuesday in Hennepin County District Court showed that a group of mostly local young men were riding in one of the mysterious vehicles. Police allegedly recovered two guns, a hammer and an "electric...
Minneapolis firefighters returned Tuesday to the burned-out remains of a Lake Street liquor store to search for a body after witnesses reported that a man didn't make it out when the building was torched during last week's riots in the wake of George Floyd's death. Crews inspected the twisted heap of metal at the intersection of Minnehaha Avenue and E. Lake Street once more, but their efforts were short-lived. "Due to the condition of the building, a thorough search is no longer possible," said...
On the morning of May 26, Minneapolis police spokesman John Elder sent a brief statement to reporters under the subject line: "Man Dies After Medical Incident During Police Interaction."

The man was George Floyd. And a source of the medical distress was the knee of a Minneapolis police officer,...

WASHINGTON - Undeterred by curfews, protesters streamed back into the nation's streets Tuesday, hours after President Donald Trump pressed governors to put down the violence set off by George Floyd's death and demanded that New York call up the National Guard to stop the "lowlifes and losers." As more demonstrations began taking shape around the country, and cities including Washington prepared for the possibility of more violence, the president amplified his hard-line calls of a day earlier,...
The truck driver who drove onto the I-35W Bridge and narrowly missed hitting protesters over the weekend was released from jail Tuesday, but prosecutors continue investigating the incident in consultation with the state’s senior public safety official.

Minnesota has gone all-in on contact tracing - mobilizing more than 400 interviewers and investigators to find people at risk for COVID-19 and prevent them from spreading the infectious disease. But a new report questions that strategy against the coronavirus causing this pandemic. And those concerns were raised irrespective of the mass protests over the death of George Floyd, which could produce a new wave of COVID-19 cases that would be tough to trace. "We've almost seen a mind-set that if a...

With no real competition, Biden and President Donald Trump easily won their respective...

Thousands of people are calling for the termination of a Forestview Middle School teacher after she made Facebook comments many deemed racist and inappropriate.
