A black man was shot by a police officer in Brooklyn Center of Minneapolis suburb at a traffic stop on Sunday afternoon. The man died few blocks away. This incident led to protests as hundreds started raising slogans and damaged several police vehicles after marching towards the police department.
The man killed in Sunday’s incident is identified as Daunte Wright. He had outstanding warrants against him and the police said they were trying to take the man into custody at around 2 pm Sunday.
