Listen: Minneapolis police investigate death of man in custody
0:00

The Minneapolis Police Department is investigating the death of a man who died after being subdued and arrested by Minneapolis police officers earlier this morning. Police officers responded to calls about a man who was acting erratically. Police officials say after the man was subdued by officers, the man began having trouble breathing and was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. The incident will apparently test the recently signed federally mediated agreement between police and community leaders.

In 2008, Minnesota's voters passed the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment to the Minnesota Constitution: to protect drinking water sources; to protect, enhance, and restore wetlands, prairies, forests, and fish, game, and wildlife habitat; to preserve arts and cultural heritage; to support parks and trails; and to protect, enhance, and restore lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater.

Efforts to digitize this initial assortment of thousands of historical audio material was made possible through the Minnesota Legacy Amendment’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. A wide range of Minnesota subject matter is represented within this collection.
