Police officers abandoned a precinct in Minneapolis late Thursday in the interest of public safety, Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey told reporters.
As more and more people gathered outside the station, and more people breached the perimeter, “It became obvious to me that safety was at risk and it became obvious to me that we could take a different route that would better assist both the public as well as the safety of our officers,” Frey said at an early morning press conference on Friday.
