Mayors call for gun restrictions; Schools prioritize safety in wake of shootings
Update: 2025-09-02
Description
The mayors of Minneapolis and St. Paul are calling on Governor Tim Walz to schedule a special session where gun restrictions would be considered.
And as school started in many locations in the metro today, Minneapolis police have increased patrols around schools and places of worship. St. Paul's police department offered extra police presence to all public and private schools in that city.
A new program in St. Cloud will provide free school supplies to some students this year.
All that and more in today’s evening update from MPR News. Hosted by Emily Reese. Music by Gary Meister.
