Black Lives Matter

Brooklyn Center Police Chief Tim Gannon described Sunday's shooting death of 20-year-old Daunte Wright as “an accidental discharge.”

Earlier Monday, the judge refused a defense request to immediately sequester the jury, the morning after the killing of a Black man during a traffic stop triggered unrest.

Daunte Wright's death sparked protests as Minneapolis was already on edge and midway through Derek Chauvin's murder trial over the killing of George Floyd.

Philly police want city residents to help prepare them for community responses to the Chauvin verdict after their botched responses last year’s unrest.

On Thursday, medical experts testified at Chauvin’s murder trial, emphatically rejecting the defense theory that Floyd's drug use and underlying health problems killed him.

Derek Chauvin is charged with murder and manslaughter, accused of killing the 46-year-old George Floyd by kneeling on Floyd's neck for 9 minutes, 29 seconds.

When Floyd was taken away by paramedics, Charles McMillian, a 61-year-old bystander who recognized Chauvin from the neighborhood, told the officer he didn't respect him.

Donald Williams returned to the stand Tuesday, a day after he described seeing Floyd struggle for air and his eyes rolling back into his head as he slowly faded away.

The trial is expected to last about four weeks at the courthouse in downtown Minneapolis, which has been fortified with concrete barriers, fencing, and barbed and razor wire.
