The crowded scene inside Minneapolis' impound lot following Sunday's snow emergency has sparked concerns over the potential for COVID-19 transmission.
City resident Steve Bush was among the scores who had their vehicles towed after the city declared an emergency starting Sunday evening in response to the snow that fell Saturday.
Bush said he wasn't aware one had been declared and didn't expect one "after such a light snowfall," but his irritation grew to alarm when he arrived at the impound lot on Colfax Avenue North.
