INCIDENT OVERVIEW
(U//FOUO) On 28 May 2020, the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, along with local law
enforcement agencies and partners, initiated the Multi-Agency Command Center (MACC) as both a
proactive and reactive security measure for activities related to the in-custody death of George Floyd in
Minneapolis, MN.
(U//FOUO) The situation in Minnesota is extremely fluid and changes often. As the situation unfolds in
your area of responsibility, the MACC will provide information as timely as possible.

(U//FOUO) The MACC is actively monitoring the situation. Should information/activity relevant to
specific jurisdictions emerge, we will work to provide that information as expeditiously as possible.
