Makeshift Barricades on Lake Street, Minneapolis

Makeshift barricades on Lake Street at Hennepin Avenue in Minneapolis, with boarded-up windows and graffiti.
Makeshift barricades, including a bicycle, garbage can, and bike rack, were placed on Lake Street at Hennepin Avenue in Minneapolis. These barriers were erected during continuing protests following the law enforcement shooting death of Winston Smith on June 3rd. The area, known for its vibrant commercial activity, experienced significant unrest and property damage in the aftermath of the incident. The plywood covering the building's windows and storefronts indicates damage and ongoing repairs.
