I said this at the time but during the first 3 months of the year I rarely saw MPD in South Minneapolis.. it felt like a very noticeable absence.
It almost seemed like they were hiding so they weren't forced to have to act on at minimum the out of control ICE driving that was happening every day?

Minneapolis police rarely responded to immigration-related emergency calls during Operation Metro Surge, even as the department spent $10 million on overtime and standby pay preparing for unrest that largely never materialized.

The MPD prioritized preventing large-scale civil unrest over responding to calls from residents concerned about unlawful force by ICE, and racked up huge OT costs doing it.
