Minneapolis to beef up police patrols in downtown Minneapolis

Downtown Minneapolis residents and visitors will see more officers patrolling on bicycle, horseback and in plainclothes this summer as part of the annual SafeZone initiative.

From June to August, Minneapolis police will partner with the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office and Metro Transit police to walk downtown beats in an effort to prevent crime and respond to public safety issues.
