Police and city workers demolished temporary roadblocks in residential areas in Minneapolis

After protesters blocked a street on the day before the night vigil, city staff and police removed temporary roadblocks from residential areas in Minneapolis on Tuesday, June 15. The vigil was held on Monday to commemorate Deona Erickson, who died late Sunday night when he was hit by a car against a group of demonstrators protesting the police killing of Winston Smith on June 3. According to local news reports, on Tuesday, the police reported the arrest of 35-year-old Nicholas D Kraus. The City of Minneapolis announced plans to order a dispersal on Tuesday to prevent the rally from “surpassing peaceful protest.” This footage taken by Documenting MN shows that when the demonstrators were arguing with the police at the scene, the vehicle was towed away and street sweepers were cleaning the road.
