Police in the US city of Minneapolis have engaged in a pattern of race discrimination for at least the past decade, a state inquiry has found.
The investigation was launched following the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis in 2020.
Minnesota’s civil rights enforcement agency looked into how officers used force, stopped, searched and arrested minorities compared to white residents.
Their analysis found wide disparities in the treatment of different races.
Its conclusions could be used to force the police department to change its practices and policies.
