Mpls. Mayor Jacob Frey
MINNEAPOLIS – Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey announced a sweeping set of public safety proposals Monday that he said would make all neighborhoods in the city safe, while increasing transparency and holding police officers accountable.
The proposals are months in the making, Frey said, but were announced Monday after a particularly violent weekend during which a 9-year-old girl was shot in the head while jumping on a trampoline in a north Minneapolis neighborhood. The girl was the second child to be critically injured by gun violence in the last two weeks.
The city has been under pressure to make changes to its police department since the May 25 death of George Floyd.
