Minneapolis Riots National Guard. Tim Walz activated the state's National Guard in order to put down rioting and looting that led to millions of dollars of lost property during the protests against the death of George Floyd. Reporters on the ground in Minneapolis, Minnesota, have said there is little to no police presence of National Guard even as the city burns due to riots over the police-involved death of George Floyd.
Reportedly five people have already been shot in the mayhem, with one confirmed as dead, and dozens of buildings being burned and vandalized.
Following widespread looting, a shooting, and police using tear gas on Wednesday night, Frey has asked for the state's National Guard to be deployed.
