Minneapolis revises policy on warrants after Locke killing

Associated Press  

MINNEAPOLIS — Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey on Monday announced a new policy for search warrants following the police shooting of a Black man in a downtown apartment, with officers required to knock and wait a certain length of time before entering a residence. The new policy would also include regular civilian review of video from searches and public disclosure of warrant data. “We hope these proposed reforms are not only implemented in Minneapolis but also spread throughout local, state, and federal governments so there can be protections in place nationwide to prevent another person from suffering the tragedy that took the lives of Amir Locke or Breonna Taylor,” their statement said. Locke was killed as Minneapolis officers carried out a warrant in a St. Paul homicide case, though officials in St. Paul say they did not request a no-knock entry be used.
