Carjackings Rise By A Staggering 537 Percent In Minneapolis, Home Of ‘Defund The Police’

By Mike LaChance - December 2, 2020



The city of Minneapolis is under seige.
Following the riots there over the summer, members of the city council began the effort by many leftists to defund the police, while hiring private security for themselves.


Now violent carjackings in the city are through the roof.


Who could have predicted such a thing?
The Star Tribune reports:
‘Staggering’ surge in violent carjackings continues across Minneapolis

A housekeeper arriving early to her shift in south Minneapolis was confronted by two hooded teenagers outside her driver’s side window.
One pointed a gun at her head, demanding that she get out, before firing three shots: two ricocheted off the window and a third struck her side-view mirror.
The woman threw her car into reverse, sending the teens fleeing in the stolen car they arrived in, the latest in a series of brazen attempted armed robberies and carjackings in a wave that is stretching across the city. Minneapolis residents are grappling with a triple-digit percentage increase in these crimes, and incidents occurring at all hours, including broad daylight.
