- Minneapolis Mounted Patrol Unit fighting for funding
The Minneapolis Mounted Patrol Unit, the last remaining in the state, faces funding cuts as its contract with the city expires in August. City Council has reduced funding over recent years, with some members advocating for reallocating resources to crime prevention in the Fifth police precinct. Kevin Rofidal of the Minnesota Fraternal Order of Police argues the unit provides a positive presence and crime deterrence, but the council remains divided on its future.
