Protesters gathered in Downtown Minneapolis to demand accountability from the Minneapolis Police Department and Mayor Jacob Frey following the fatal shooting of Amir Locke. Locke was killed on February 2, 2022, during the execution of a no-knock search warrant. The protest, held in the aftermath of the incident, featured signs questioning the role of law enforcement, such as one reading "PROTECT? MPD + FREY & SERVE?" with the slogan "JUSTICE FOR AMIR LOCKE" and "PROSECUTE KILLER COPS."
