The traffic stop that would end Daunte Wright’s life played out on a Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, police officer’s body camera. Officers appeared to try to handcuff him; then he slipped back into the driver’s seat.
The BCA - now in charge of the investigation - identified the officer as Kim Potter, who has been with the Brooklyn Center Police Department for 26 years.
