Daunte Wright has been identified as the 20-year-old Black Minnesota man who was killed by police in a Minneapolis suburb on Sunday, April 11, 2021. Wright was pulled over by officers in Brooklyn Center just before 2 p.m. according to a press release from the police department. During the traffic stop, police said Wright began to drive away and an officer opened fire, striking him. Wright drove another several blocks before crashing, police said.
According to police, Wright was pronounced dead at the scene after officers and responding medical personnel attempted life-saving measures. A woman was in the passenger seat of Wright’s car and she suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the crash. She was taken to a local hospital, police said. Wright was identified as the victim by his mother, Katie Wright, who spoke to media at the scene of the crash, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. According to Wright’s mother, her son’s body had been in the street for several hours.
Another Black man failing to follow orders.
I guarantee the cops wont be found not guilty of this mans killing, too.
Reports that the internet is already being scrubbed of his hatred for cops.
If he had a father, his father should have "had the talk" about proper police interactions while getting pulled over.
Yet, again we have a fellow with a bad attitude getting lit up for not using a little common sense.
This was all over an air freshener hanging from the rear view mirror.
Is that a hill to die on?
