Minneapolis City Council Deadlocks 6–6, Blocking Skydio Drone-as-First-Responder Pilot
The Minneapolis City Council voted 6–6, effectively rejecting a free 75-day Skydio Drone as First Responder (DFR) pilot program for the city's police department. Opposing council members cited Skydio's business relationships with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Israeli military as key concerns, even as neighboring cities continue to expand similar DFR initiatives.
