MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA — An autonomous zone, free of police and law, has been established in Minneapolis. It would appear that the zone has been up for a little while, but has recently come into the spotlight after police say the zone prevented first responders from getting to ‘a brutal assault.”

If it’s anything like Chaz in Portland, it’ll be a lawless area with reported assaults, shootings and rapes, with no police in sight. And it’ll be run by a rapper, of course.
When first responders were trying to get to an assault victim, who had a broken cheek, missing teeth and was knocked unconscious, they had a tough time.
An internal Minneapolis Police Department report obtained by KSTP said, “The crowd from the George Floyd Memorial began moving toward us and people were hollering that they were going to kick our asses and that we would have to kill them.”
It could just be the beginning of trouble in this small but dangerous area.
