Hennepin County Medical Center boarded up during the Derek Chauvin trial. The hospital, a major public health facility in Minneapolis, was secured with plywood as a precautionary measure amid concerns of unrest following the verdict in the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin. Chauvin was on trial for the murder of George Floyd, an event that sparked widespread protests and civil unrest in the city and across the nation. The boarding up of the medical center highlights the tension and potential for disruption in the city during this period of heightened public attention and emotion.
