Demonstrators in large numbers gathered in the Minneapolis suburb on Monday to mourn and protest the death of a young Black man named Duante Wright, who succumbed to a gunshot wound after white officers engaged at the scene. Wright had attempted to drive away fearing for his life as officers demanded that he pulls over. Shortly after the 20-year-old jumped in the car and drove a few miles away, panicking, the said officers opened fire that killed Wright, as he crashed some blocks away. Witnessing the shooting, a group of youngsters confronted the officers and jumped on the police vehicle sparking mass anti-police brutality protests around the city.
MINNEAPOLIS â Former Brooklyn Center police Officer Kimberly A. Potter was arrested late Wednesday morning at the offices of the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the agency said in a statement.
Potter, who resigned from the police department on Tuesday, was booked into Hennepin County jail shortly after noon on a charge of probable cause second-degree manslaughter in the shooting death on Sunday of Daunte Wright, jail records show. The Washington County Attorney s Office was expected to file charges later in the day.
Potter is being represented by attorney Earl Gray, who was not immediately available for comment.
Attorney Ben Crump, who said he has been retained by Wright s family, issued a statement Wednesday with co-counsel Jeff Storms and Antonio Romanucci in response to the charges.
