A Walgreens pharmacy and food mart on Lake Street in Minneapolis stands damaged and smoking in the early hours of May 30, 2020. Plywood covers the entrance, windows are broken, and graffiti is visible on the exterior of the one-story commercial building. The store was photographed during the unrest that followed the police killing of George Floyd, when numerous businesses along the Lake Street corridor were damaged or burned.
