00:00We've seen a big change here in the last couple of weeks.
00:02I'm also pleased to report that we're seeing a notable decrease on unlawful agitator activity here in Minneapolis and overall
00:09throughout the state.
00:10This is great news from Minnesota communities that have been adversely impacted by the lawlessness and chaos in the street.
00:17The QRF deployments have dropped dramatically because we have less of that occurring, less of the agitator that crossed that
00:25line.
00:25That is a good thing. That is a win for everybody.
00:28In success that has been made arresting public safety threats and other priorities since this surge operation began,
00:34as well as the unprecedented levels of coordination we have obtained from state officials and local law enforcement,
00:40I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude.
00:46A significant drawdown has already been underway this week and will continue through the next week.
00:51Law enforcement officers drawn down from this surge operation will either return to the duty station or be assigned elsewhere
00:58to achieve just that.
