Mpls. Mayor Betsy Hodges
Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges and Police Chief Janee Harteau are asking the U-S Justice Department to review the city’s response to last year’s occupation of the 4th Precinct police station by Black Lives Matter protesters. Mayor Hodges says the independent review will give city officials insight into what was done well and where they can do better in the future. Chief Harteau echoes the process will help M-P-D look at new challenges and opportunities to improve the profession. There’s no immediate comment from Black Lives Matter.
