Coldest Day in Years, New Police Hires, and Tragic Incident in New Orleans - Minneapolis Local Pulse for January 8, 2025

  • サマリー

  • Good morning, this is Minneapolis Local Pulse for Wednesday, January 8, 2025. We're starting the day with some breaking news from the past few days. The Minneapolis Police Department welcomed its largest group of new hires in five years on Tuesday, marking a significant development in our city's law enforcement efforts[1].

    In other news, a tragic incident occurred in New Orleans on New Year's Eve, where a vehicle ran into a crowd on Bourbon Street, resulting in ten deaths and thirty injuries. While this incident didn't happen in Minneapolis, it's a reminder of the importance of public safety, especially during celebrations.

    Moving on to our job market snapshot, a new law that went into effect on January 1 requires employers with thirty or more employees to include starting salary ranges and a general description of benefits in job postings. This change aims to promote pay transparency and will impact many local employers[2].

    In city hall news, the Minneapolis city council recently discussed and passed the 2025 budget, which includes various initiatives to support our community's growth and development[3].

    Looking at the weather, we're expecting colder air to move into Minnesota, with highs in the Twin Cities barely breaking twenty degrees today. This will certainly impact outdoor activities and events, so make sure to bundle up if you're planning to venture out.

    On the business front, a new, highly nostalgic spot in St. Paul has opened, offering a modern twist for gamers young and old. Meanwhile, the 19 Bar, the oldest LGBTQ+ bar in Minnesota, was targeted by a burglar overnight Tuesday, highlighting the need for community support during its rebuilding efforts.

    In community news, Emily Roth, the president of the Minnesota Children of the American Revolution, has chosen to help homeless veterans as her state project, demonstrating the compassion and dedication of our local youth.

    In sports, the Gophers men's basketball team lost to Ohio State 89-88 in double overtime Monday night at Williams Arena, falling to 8-7 overall and 0-4 in Big Ten play[5].

    Lastly, in our crime report, charges have been filed against a drunk driver who hit and killed a mother one day before her birthday in St. Louis Park. This tragic incident underscores the importance of safe driving practices and the devastating consequences of distracted driving.

    This has been Minneapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
