A look back at the last year of random businesses leaving Minnesota and violent crimes.
Times have changed.
Uptown Art Fair #Cancelled
Basilica Block Part #Cancelled
Uptown Minneapolis Juut Salon #Closed due to escalation of crime and violence.
In a two month period starting around August of 2021 over 40 Lyft/Uber drivers were targeted in Uber and Lyft Car jackings in Minneapolis alone.
What's new in Minneapolis?
1) Machete attacks.
If you want to learn more about Machete attacks in Minneapolis go to twitter type in Minneapolis and Machete or @CrimewatchMPLS and machete and click search.
This is not a full list - far from it.
Other notable attacks. Lives changed forever due to violence in Minneapolis.
Anye Magnuson was only 23 when she was leaving her job as a server at popular Uptown Night Spot Fogo De Chao - when she was hit by a driver, and has been unresponsive. She suffered skull fractures and broken bones after being thrown over 30 feet after a hard night at work.
Of all the horror stories I read in Minneapolis, this one hit me the hardest.
This could have been any of us. She was so young, and this accident is so tragic.
Heartbreaking.
Here is a link to her site, she is still recovering. Love and prayers to her and her family.
Praying this doesn't happen to other young men and women, who go out downtown and only realize the city has fallen to dark crime, after they are stuck on the streets, after being car jacked, or losing their phones, after they are separated from their friends after getting kicked out of bars. If you follow @crimewatchmpls soon you will see a pattern of these events happening, and for your own safety you should assess the risk before going anywhere either alone or with friends, where you can become separated- especially at night. This area is far from safe, and is no longer the city we once knew and loved.
Mayor Jacob Frey and Governor Tim Walz will sugar coat it, and try to make you feel safe, yet - they ARE the problem, they are the reason it has got to this level. They will never fix it, only ignore it and tell you how great it is there. #PoliticiansLie Look. Listen. Trust your instincts. KNOW BETTER. XOXO
@Crimewatchmpls on twitter has put together a homicide map for 2022.
