Police say officer meant to use Taser on Minnesota shooting victim
| The officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright do so after mistakenly pulling her gun instead of her taser on the 20-year-old after police stopped his car, the Brooklyn Center, Minn., police chief said Monday.
“It appeared to me, from the video, that the individual was trying to get back into his car to leave,” Police Chief Tim Gannon said. “It is my belief that the officer had the intention to deploy their Taser, but instead shot Mr. Wright with a single bullet,” Gannon said. |
