20-year-old shot, killed during Brooklyn Center traffic stop sparks overnight unrest
20-year-old shot, killed during Brooklyn Center traffic stop sparks overnight unrest WorldViralMedia 23 Views • 4 years ago

Protests erupted Sunday in Brooklyn Center after a police officer shot and killed a man during a traffic stop. Mayor Mike Elliott issued a curfew until 6 a.m. Monday morning for anyone in the city, with exceptions for those traveling for work or emergency situations.

Family members identified the man killed as 20-year-old Daunte Wright.

5 EYEWITNESS NEWS talked with Wright's mother, Katie Wright, who said her son called her during that stop and told her he was pulled over because he had air freshener in the rear view mirror.

"He said, 'Mom, they want to know about insurance.' I said, 'When the police officer comes back to the window, put them on the phone and I will give them the insurance information,'" Katie Wright said. "Then I heard the police officer come to window and say, 'Put the phone down and get out of the car' and Daunte said, 'Why?' He said, 'We'll explain to you when you get out of the car.'"

Katie Wright said she heard the phone drop and scuffling and then heard the officer tell her son not to run; that's when the phone hung up.

According to investigators, during the traffic stop, officers determined the driver had an outstanding warrant. Police said he was shot after trying to get back into the car as an officer was trying to arrest him.

Investigators said they believe body-worn and dash cameras were activated during the incident and there are now calls for that video to be turned over.

Overnight, looters targeted stores around the Twin Cities, including about 20 businesses at a strip mall in Brooklyn Center. Not far from there, a large group of demonstrators outside the Brooklyn Center Police Department was met with flash-bangs and tear gas by police.


Minnesota Department of Public Safety Commissioner John Harrington said more National Guard members would be deployed around the metro and in Brooklyn Center.

LIVE: Derek Chauvin Murder Trial Resumes in Minneapolis Over Death of George Floyd
LIVE: Derek Chauvin Murder Trial Resumes in Minneapolis Over Death of George Floyd WorldViralMedia 23 Views • 4 years ago

(Apr. 7) The parade of Minneapolis police officers rejecting a former officer’s actions in restraining George Floyd continued at his murder trial, including a use-of-force instructor who said officers were coached to “stay away from the neck when possible.”

Lt. Johnny Mercil on Tuesday became the latest member of the Minneapolis force to take the stand as part of an effort by prosecutors to dismantle the argument that Derek Chauvin was doing what he was trained to do when he put his knee on George Floyd’s neck last May.

Several experienced officers, including the police chief himself, have testified that Floyd should not have been kept pinned to the pavement for close to 9 1/2 minutes by prosecutors’ reckoning as the Black man lay face-down, his hands cuffed behind his back.

According to testimony and records submitted Tuesday, Chauvin took a 40-hour course in 2016 on how to recognize people in crisis — including those suffering mental problems or the effects of drug use — and how to use de-escalation techniques to calm them down.

Sgt. Ker Yang, the Minneapolis police official in charge of crisis-intervention training, said officers are taught to “slow things down and re-evaluate and reassess.”

Records show Chauvin also underwent training in the use of force in 2018. Mercil said those who attended were taught that the sanctity of life is a cornerstone of departmental policy and that officers must use the least amount of force required to get a suspect to comply.

Under cross-examination by Chauvin attorney Eric Nelson, Mercil testified that officers are trained in some situations to use their knee across a suspect’s back or shoulder and employ their body weight to maintain control.

But Mercil added: “We tell officers to stay away from the neck when possible.”

Nelson has argued that the now-fired white officer “did exactly what he had been trained to do over his 19-year career,” and he has suggested that the illegal drugs in Floyd’s system and his underlying health conditions are what killed him, not Chauvin’s knee.

LIVE: Man Fatally Shot by Brooklyn Center Police - April 11, 2021
LIVE: Man Fatally Shot by Brooklyn Center Police - April 11, 2021 WorldViralMedia 23 Views • 4 years ago

A Brooklyn Center officer fatally shot a 20-year-old man during a traffic stop Sunday afternoon, with a large crowd forming in the aftermath and police in riot gear holding the area. Police tried to stop the driver on the 6300 block of Orchard Ave. shortly before 2 p.m., when they learned he had an outstanding warrant, according to a media release from Brooklyn Center police.

When officers were trying to take him into custody, the driver re-entered the vehicle, police said. An officer discharged their firearm, striking the driver, who continued driving several blocks before hitting another vehicle near 63rd Ave. N. & Kathrene Dr.

Officers who were in pursuit rendered aid to the man at the crash site, but he died a short time later. A female passenger in the man’s vehicle had non-life-threatening injuries from the crash and was taken to the hospital. No one in the vehicle that was struck was hurt.

Family members at the scene identified the man as Daunte Wright, though he has not yet been identified by authorities. Wright’s mother said he called her on the phone to say he was getting pulled over, she told those gathered near the scene Sunday.

As officers locked down the area, a crowd grew larger and more vocal. Officers in full riot gear formed a line to keep the crowd back, and at least two squad cars were damaged by large rocks, with several people seen standing atop them in livestreams shared to social media.

Wright’s family and community leaders called for calm as the facts of the incident still come to light.

“The officer shooting in Brooklyn Center today is tragic. We are asking the protesters to continue to be peaceful and that peaceful protesters are not dealt with with force.” Brooklyn Center Mayor Mike Elliot said in a tweet.

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is investigating the officer-involved shooting and more information is expected in the coming days. Brooklyn Center officers wear body cameras and their dash camera video should be made available during the investigation.
