Protesters outside burning Minneapolis 3rd Precinct

Protesters with their hands up during riot
The Minneapolis Police 3rd Precinct on Lake Street burns at night, surrounded by protesters on May 28, 2020. This event occurred during widespread protests in Minneapolis following the death of George Floyd. The precinct, which served as the home station for former officer Derek Chauvin, was abandoned by police before being set ablaze. The destruction of the facility became a significant symbol of the unrest and calls for justice and police accountability during the Minneapolis Uprising.
