Civil unrest sparked by misinformation

Vandalism Wednesday night began after a man fatally shot himself. There were unsubstantiated claims made on social media that police shot him.

In a rare move, the city quickly released video of the graphic incident on social media, citing the need to quell rumors and end the civil unrest. The video was taken down Thursday morning.

Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey both condemned the vandals in late-night news conferences and told people downtown that they must return home.

A total of 132 people were arrested by multiple agencies on various offenses that included riot, burglary, damage to property and curfew Wednesday night in Minneapolis. Vandals damaged dozens of businesses downtown and in the Loring Park neighborhood.
