  • Minnesota COVID-19 vaccination incentives fall short

    Jul 9, 2021

Up to 100,000 rewards, including State Fair tickets and fishing licenses, would be given to those who got their first dose in June. About 135,000 first doses were administered last month, yet just 17,409 people requested a reward...

Biden pushed back against the notion the U.S. mission has failed but also noted that it remains unlikely the government would control all of Afghanistan after the U.S. leaves. He urged...

  • MPD kills another Black Man during high-speed chase

    Jul 9, 2021

    At around 12:30 AM on July 6th, Leneal Frazier, a Black man, was killed by the Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) during a high-speed chase. Frazier was an innocent bystander who was not involved in the police pursuit. Frazier was a father and the uncle of Darnella Frazier, the teen who courageously filmed the murder of George Floyd.

In 2019, MPD revised i...
