Concrete barricades surround Downtown Minneapolis 1st Precinct
Taken June 2020
Concrete barricades and chain-link fencing line Hennepin Avenue in downtown Minneapolis near the Minneapolis Police 1st Precinct. The barriers were installed in late May and early June 2020 after protests followed the killing of George Floyd. In this block, temporary security measures surround parking lots and building frontages, reflecting the tightened perimeter around the precinct and nearby businesses.
