On 6/14/25 at 2:10 a.m., in reviewing camera footage, MCAD Campus Safety found that two unknown individuals were able to gain entrance to the main north exterior of the Hive, but were not able to gain any further entry into the building at that time.
Shortly after Midnight tonight (6/16/25), MCAD Campus Safety was alerted to possible vehicle break-ins in the Hive Surface Lot. While investigating that report (two vehicles had broken windows, but nothing missing from either vehicle--owners of both vehicles were notified), approximately five gunshots were heard southeast of campus, and Minneapolis Police were notified by MCAD Campus Safety and responded to the scene. A single male (no known MCAD affiliation) approached Campus Safety near the corner of 26th St.
On 6/2/25 at approximately 8:15pm Campus Safety was alerted to an attempted vehicle break in or theft, we were unable to ascertain exact intent. Suspect is a black male who was wearing a white T-Shirt and dark pants. The suspect was driving a dark colored Audi crossover MN license JPK 545. Suspect vehicle was seen exiting the lot northbound in the alley and turning west on 26th St. MPD was notified.

A female in her 60’s was walking when approached by a heavier-set dark-skinned male, likely in his mid- to late-20’s, when he grabbed the bag she was carrying and pulled it away from her, tossing the bag to a nearby male, and then took off running towards Clinton Ave where he was seen getting into a dark blue Volvo at the corner of 26th St.
