"But when Julio arrived in Minnesota on August 22, he received word that his ride-along with MPD had not been approved by City Hall — a requirement that surprised MPD as well as Julio after the trip had received a green light from the known requisite parties in July," Brown wrote. "One of Julio's MPD sources familiar with the situation told him that the denial for Julio to do a ride-along with the city's police force came from Mayor Jacob Frey's office, despite MPD's desire for Julio to see and report on the challenges officers deal with on a daily basis."
Townhall published a series of questions that were sent to Frey's office including when the policy requiring City Hall approval for MPD ride-alongs was instituted and what is considered by City Hall when allowing a reporter to join on a ride-along. Townhall did not get a response from the mayor.
