- Federal lawsuit raises questions about culture at prior job of Minneapolis mayor’s nominee for fire chief
A federal lawsuit raises concerns about a prior job of Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey’s nominee for fire chief, Reginald Freeman. The lawsuit, filed in 2022, alleges harassment and discrimination in a Connecticut fire department during Freeman’s leadership but does not directly accuse him. The city and mayor’s office declined to comment, while a former city council leader called the allegations troubling and questioned whether Freeman was aware of the issues.
