Minneapolis police are investigating a man's death at the homeless encampment along Minnehaha Park Drive, a police spokesman said Sunday afternoon.
The death, initially reported by police to be that of a woman, was reported just as volunteers were stepping up efforts to get people the encampment in the 4900 block of Minnehaha Park Drive.
The arrival of several squad cars just after 12:15 p.m. caused most other residents to flee, thinking the police had arrived to clear the camp, spokesman John Elder said.
