Jurors in the trial of a suburban Minneapolis police officer who shot and killed Black motorist Daunte Wright were to begin their third day of deliberations Wednesday, after a question to the judge suggested some are concerned they may not be able to reach agreement.

Judge Regina Chu returned to the bench Tuesday to answer two jury questions which were lodged at 4pm CT after more than 13 hours of deliberations.

The jury began discussing the case after closing arguments on Monday. In their final remarks, prosecutors said Potter acted recklessly and with "culpable negligence" in drawing the wrong weapon, while the defense argued that Wright caused his own death by resisting arrest and attempting to flee, and that Potter was justified in using force.
