People who described themselves as concerned citizens stood outside the Apple Store on Hennepin Avenue in Minneapolis on Tuesday to express their concern about a request by the FBI for Apple to help unlock an encrypted iPhone owned by one of the shooters in an attack in California late last year. The attack killed 14 people.
The local gathering was among dozens of similar rallies planned around the country and world.
