"Our individual jurisdiction financial folks are still making sure that we’re categorizing and document that. At some point in time, whether that’s through the state, through the county, and Minneapolis Police, Metro Transit. We will have those figures for you. We are certainly documenting those ourselves,” said Chief Arradondo. Accounting for OSN is underway and we will be able to report that to the public as soon as it's available.

Update: We are in phase four of OSN. This includes scaling back on resources with the ability to quickly increase them if needed.

“Right now, we are moving into phase four, so we are actively demobilizing in a strategic way. And at the same time, we certainly have resources available as we always do. For sure through to the weekend and into the foreseeable future to make sure that we’re ready in the event that something comes up, and at the same time, very hopeful that the last few nights are indicative of the future for Minnesota,” says Col. Langer, Minnesota State Patrol.

“We have started transitioning to phase four, we are going to be maneuvering our soldiers and airmen out of the Twin Cities Metro and back to their communities, back to their families, and back to their employers,” added Maj. Gen. Manke, MN National Guard.

Operation Safety Net is bringing in help from other states to assist in preserving the safety of our communities and allowing people to express their First Amendment rights.

Governor Tim Walz issued a request under the federal Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC) to bring in 123 state troopers from from Ohio and Nebraska to Minnesota.

The out-of-state troopers will report to the Minnesota State Patrol and will be assigned to security missions at key state facilities, allowing Minnesota State Patrol troopers and Minnesota Department of Natural Resources conservation officers to support Operation Safety Net in the metro area.
