Source: Minneapolis Police Department open data, counted by the date the offense occurred, through September 29, 2026. Weeks run Monday to Sunday. The comparison week a year earlier is 52 weeks back, so weekdays line up. Offenses are counted as MPD counts them and exclude shots-fired calls, gunshot wound victims and subset rows. Reported crimes only. See the methodology. Cite as: Glass on the Street, "Minneapolis crime, week of November 21-27, 2022," https://glassonthestreet.com/weekly/2022-11-21, accessed October 11, 2026.
