A federal investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department found that the police, and the city itself, engages in a "pattern or practice" of excessive force and racial discrimination that violates both the United States Constitution and federal law.

The Minneapolis Police Department, the probe found, “uses excessive force, including unjustified deadly force and other types of force”; “unlawfully discriminates against Black and Native American people in its enforcement activities”; “violates the rights of people engaged in protected speech”; and discriminates against people with behavioral health issues.
