The city of Minneapolis will pay out $50,000 each to twelve individuals injured by police during the Black Lives Matter (BLM) riots of 2020.
These incidents broke out nationwide at the time and caused billions of dollars in damages and between six to twenty homicides, according to the Blaze.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Minnesota and the city of Minneapolis agreed in October about these payouts, and they will be paying out this hefty sum to twelve people injured by police at that time.
The city council signed off the agreement on October 20, which was signed off by Democrat Mayor Jacob Frey six days later. Finally, a federal judge also signed off on the agreement on Wednesday.
