MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The Twin Cities will be under a 7 p.m. curfew Monday evening following Sunday’s fatal police shooting of Daunte Wright in Brooklyn Center.

The curfew will run until 6 a.m. Tuesday. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter III say that the cities are under a state of emergency.

Gov. Tim Walz said that he also is calling a curfew for the entire counties of Hennepin, Ramsey and Anoka. More than two million people live in those three counties.

The announcement came at the weekly update on the status of Operation Safety Net, which is in effect as the trial proceedings continue for Derek Chauvin, who is charged in the death of George Floyd.

4. I thought last summer was bad

I'm terrified of what will happen if Chauvin is acquitted.

5. All along I predicted

This summer will be worse than last; the trial will only be a difference between a little worse or much worse

6. Maybe a hung jury...retrial needed.

7. "If"...?

I'm guessing "when" is more appropriate.

8. With the prosecution's case

I'm sticking with "if" for now. I may change it to "when" once I see the defense's case.
