Inside Minneapolis Sheraton Hotel Police Clearing

Minneapolis Police Department officers conduct a clearing operation inside the abandoned Midtown Sheraton Hotel in Minneapolis. The hotel, located in the Midtown area, had been vacated by its owner and subsequently became a site of activity during the Minneapolis Uprising following the murder of George Floyd. This intervention was part of broader efforts to secure and board up properties in the city. The interior displays scattered furniture, debris, and graffiti on the fireplace, indicating the hotel's condition prior to being secured.
