Minnesota National Guard members stand on Marquette Avenue in Downtown Minneapolis following the False Rumors riot. This deployment occurred in response to civil unrest, part of the broader Minneapolis Uprising, which saw protests and disturbances across the city. The presence of the National Guard aimed to maintain order and secure areas in the urban environment. Marquette Avenue is a major thoroughfare in the city's central business district, characterized by its mix of historic and modern architecture, including the stone building visible in the background.
