Minneapolis Police Fourth Precinct with Razor Wire and Snow

Fencing and razor wire around Minneapolis Police station
The Minneapolis Police Fourth Precinct station is shown fortified with security fencing and razor wire in January 2022. This precinct became a focal point during the 2020 Minneapolis uprising following the murder of George Floyd, which led to its temporary occupation and eventual abandonment by the Minneapolis Police Department. The presence of security measures and a sign reminding visitors to practice social distancing highlights the heightened tensions and public scrutiny surrounding law enforcement in the city during that period. The precinct has since been rebuilt and reopened.
