Protesters gathered in Downtown Minneapolis to demand justice for Amir Locke, who was killed by police during a no-knock warrant execution on February 2, 2022. The marchers carried signs with messages such as "Abolish MPD," "Justice for Amir Locke," and "Black Lives Matter." This event occurred in the wake of increased scrutiny of Minneapolis police practices following previous incidents, including the murder of George Floyd in 2020.
