A high ranking Minneapolis officer and a well-known North Side officer have been relieved of duty pending a federal criminal investigation.

The officers are Lt. Lee Edwards, who is one of five black officers suing the police department over allegations of racial discrimination, and Mike Roberts, a 29-year-member of the department. Neither officer could be reached for comment.

Just saw this on KARE 11 news. The interviewed Ron Edwards of the MPLS Police/Citizen council who claimed this is all related to race. Then an other Black man, may have been a city council member, but not sure, who claimed the same.

Knock me over with a feather.
