Minneapolis residents speak out about violence epidemic plaguing city on 'The Story'
Fox News
A former Minneapolis city councilman and a young mother driven from her home by gun violence spoke to Fox News host Martha MacCallum Monday as Minnesota's largest city braces for more unrest with the trial of Officer Derek Chauvin underway.
On "The Story," MacCallum visited violence-plagued North Minneapolis and spoke with former Councilman Don Samuels, who served from 2003 to 2014. Samuels stood outside his home, and told MacCallum that Minneapolis had just been getting a handle on its gun violence problem when Floyd's death caused rioting and lasting damage in the city. He attributed some of the uptick in violence to the fact that the current city council has decimated the Minneapolis Police Department and effectively left troubled neighborhoods to fend for themselves.More Related News
