Doubts have been raised about how a 26-year police veteran could mistake a handgun for a Taser, after the Brooklyn Center police chief said he believes the officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright did so accidentally.
The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) on Monday identified Kim Potter as the officer who shot Wright, a day after the 20-year-old Black man s death in the Minneapolis suburb sparked unrest in an area already on edge due to the trial of former officer Derek Chauvin in the death of George Floyd.
Police clashed with protesters for a second night in Brooklyn Center, Minn., as outrage spread across the U.S. over Wright s death at the hands of an officer who meant to use her Taser, officials say.
