MN Operation Safety Net

update: OSN leaders are coordinating to schedule a media briefing. The evening was peaceful, there are no arrests associated with OSN from Sunday through this morning. Additional information will be released later today.

Operation Safety Net is bringing in help from other states to assist in preserving the safety of our communities and allowing people to express their First Amendment rights.

Governor Tim Walz issued a request under the federal Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC) to bring in 123 state troopers from from Ohio and Nebraska to Minnesota.

The out-of-state troopers will report to the Minnesota State Patrol and will be assigned to security missions at key state facilities, allowing Minnesota State Patrol troopers and Minnesota Department of Natural Resources conservation officers to support Operation Safety Net in the metro area.
