A lawsuit filed Friday in Ramsey County seeks to prevent the members of two rival gangs from gathering at the Minnesota State Fair.
A video from the fair last year allegedly shows Ville gang members “taunting rival gang members” before another fight.
“We have to hope that pre-emptive measures will work so that there won’t have to be a reaction to violence at the state fair.”
These injunctions are one tool in our toolbox to ensure Minnesotans have a safe and fun-filled State Fair.”
