Holiday Gas boarded on Cedar Ave after Dolal Idd killing

Workers board up the windows of a Holiday Gas station on Cedar Avenue in South Minneapolis. This precautionary measure was taken in anticipation of potential unrest following the Minneapolis Police shooting of Dolal Idd on December 30, 2020. The incident occurred in a city that had experienced widespread protests and civil unrest earlier in 2020, particularly after the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police approximately one mile from this location. Businesses throughout Minneapolis frequently boarded up during periods of heightened tension to protect their properties.
