Minneapolis city leaders look to address public safety concerns after tragic few days
MINNEAPOLIS — Inside Minneapolis American Indian Center, building trust and community safety is at the top of mind Tuesday night.
“We are public servants, and we must be accountable to community,” said Michelle Phillips, Minneapolis Director of Civil Rights.
The city’s top leaders, top cop and a group designed (Unity in Community Mediation Team) to transform policing celebrated progress and partnership.
But a community is reeling after a tragic few days.
“When we talk about reducing violence, we don’t just mean violence from police to us — but also us to us,” said Lisa Clemons, of A Mother’s Love Initiative.
Clemons is hoping for community members to join her in the fight to save lives.
“We need to not be burying our children- visiting them in prisons and hospitals,” Clemons stated.
Frustration is bubbling over the tragic weekend in Minneapolis.
Monday, a 14-year-old boy was shot — just feet from where 16-year-old De’Miaya Broome was killed in a hit-and-run early Saturday morning.
Latalia Margalli, 22, was charged with one count of second-degree murder and five counts of second-degree assault, according to documents filed in Hennepin County Tuesday.
Broome was with a group of people at the intersection of Fifth Street and Hennepin Avenue early Saturday morning. A fight broke out, and Margalli allegedly got in her car, drove the wrong way down Fifth Street and through a crowd of a dozen people, investigators said.
WCCO spoke with Broome’s family Monday, and they said she come from a family who loves and misses her.
It’s the pain the Broome family feels — that Clemons says has to stop.
“What we need to do is be in a rooms talking about reform and transformation in community against community,” Clemons stated.
Margalli makes her first appearance in court on Wednesday.

Minneapolis police chief fired officer who left his post to seek sex act during overnight shift
When the woman responds with a suggestive photo of their own, Alonzo writes, “Okay, give me a sec, let’s see if I can leave this call.” Ten minutes later, Alonzo writes that he has arrived at her apartment and is provided instructions to be buzzed upstairs.
Time stamps indicate that the messages were exchanged over a 2½-hour period during the normal working hours of his shift. The overnight shift, known as “dogwatch,” typically runs until about 6:30 a.m.
The civilian later told investigators that she communicated with Alonzo via Grindr and confirmed that he had arrived at her home, in full uniform, multiple times in August 2022. Automatic location tracking data inside his city-issued squad car proved that the vehicle was parked near her residence on two dates — outside the Fifth Precinct area, to which he was assigned. There were no known calls for service there.
Under questioning from Internal Affairs, Alonzo admitted that he met with a woman in her home and “had oral sex performed on him” while on duty. He acknowledged how that behavior might be concerning to the public.
“I could see where people would believe that I’m intentionally leaving an emergency call,” Alonzo said, according to disciplinary records. “It also devalues like the trust of police and community.”
An audit of Alonzo’s search history within the city’s Police Information Management System (PIMS) also revealed that he had used the database to obtain private data on the woman unrelated to his official work duties. He contacted a phone number obtained through an address search, believing it to be the woman from the dating app; it turned out to be her roommate’s.
