Burned pole near Minneapolis Police Third Precinct

Burned pole across from Minneapolis police station
A burned utility pole stands across from the Minneapolis Police Third Precinct building in South Minneapolis. This pole was damaged during the civil unrest that followed the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. The precinct building itself was a focal point of protests and was eventually set ablaze and abandoned by the Minneapolis Police Department. The damage to the surrounding infrastructure serves as a physical reminder of the intense events that transpired in this location.
