SCOTUS refused to block a lawsuit from family of Amir Locke, a 22-yold Black man killed by Minneapolis police during no-knock raid. The officer sought qualified immunity, but lower courts said bodycam footage was too unclear to support his defense.
Amir Locke’s family will get their day in court.

“and do you feel anxious, sad, unsafe…”
“I mean…”
“yeahhhhh… I hear you…”

Foreign press comes to Minneapolis and immediately realize what they came to cover is actually happening.

Don't know what the deal is but it's a particularly smashy Monday morning. Smashed vehicles at Lake/10th, Lake/Bde Maka Ska and Emerson/27th.
I asked the question to MPD that you kind of have to these days. Is this an ICE vehicle? I'm told no.

The Vice President says this is "near the top of the list" of "crazy stories" he heard in Minneapolis.
Let me tell you, the people of Minnesota have some actual crazy stories to tell from the last 2 months. This situation isn't one of them.
