Disband the police force? Minneapolis wouldn't be the first to try it


In one of the more radical proposals, Minneapolis city council has begun moving to dismantle the local force. A new, larger force was rebuilt in conjunction with the surrounding county, after a few major adjustments. Murders are down by two-thirds since the year before the police reform, and overall violent crime is down nearly half.

Calls for police reform include de-escalation training for officers so incidents involving police can be resolved without violence.
