Due to the unspeakable violence last night, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey urged the Minnesota governor to call in the National Guard. Likewise, Gov. Walz took to social media last night; in doing so, he urged Minneapolis residents to disperse after the escalation of riots.
The situation near Lake Street and Hiawatha in Minneapolis has evolved into an extremely dangerous situation. For everyone's safety, please leave the area and allow firefighters and paramedics to get to the scene.
