Hennepin County Government Center Security Barricades

Barricades at Hennepin County Courthouse tunnel
Temporary security barricades are erected around the Hennepin County Government Center at 300 South 6th Street in Minneapolis. These measures were put in place in anticipation of the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former police officer charged in the May 2020 murder of George Floyd. The trial, which began in March 2021, drew significant public attention and heightened security concerns in the downtown area. The presence of these barriers underscores the complex social and legal context surrounding the events of 2020 and their aftermath.
