Minn. LEO hands out cold weather gear to homeless during big freeze

MINNEAPOLIS — It doesn’t take long for Sgt. Grant Snyder to spot those wholly unprepared for the bitter cold.
From the back of his small utility vehicle, the Minneapolis police veteran doles out hats, gloves and blankets to the homeless shivering downtown, plus the occasional cup of hot cocoa.
“You can just tell suffering when you see it,” said Snyder, who’s been traveling to homeless hot spots after dark for the past week. “The last two nights, it’s been daunting.”
