Newly elected city officials visited the University of Minnesota on Tuesday to discuss solutions to crime after a tumultuous fall semester, which saw an uptick in violent crime on or near campus.
Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges and City Councilmen Jacob Frey, DFL-Ward 3, and Blong Yang, DFL-Ward 5, arrived on campus just days after being sworn into office, accompanied by University administrators and local police.
