Minneapolis mayor proposes changes to no-knock warrants [View all]

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey proposed permanently banning the city's police officers from using no-knock or no-announcement warrants earlier this week.

Instead, Frey said, members of the Minneapolis Police Department should be required to wait at least 20 seconds outside of entrances prior to starting a search during the daylight hours and 30 seconds at night, according to MPRNews.

"This is the most forward-thinking policy in the country," Frey said in a press conference.

The proposed new rule comes roughly six weeks after a Minneapolis police officer killed a 22-year-old Black man during an apartment search.
