Description

Protesters gathered outside the Brooklyn Center police department to protest the police killing of Daunte Wright on Friday.

Police were seen using pepper spray to disperse people away from the fence, with one person seen injured and being tended by medical personnel.

Wright was fatally shot by officer Kim Potter after being pulled over by law enforcement on Sunday. Potter, a 26-year veteran of the Brooklyn Center Police Department subsequently announced her resignation on Tuesday, as did police chief Tim Gannon. Potter has since been charged with second-degree manslaughter, though protesters continue to demand murder charges be brought against her. City officials have imposed a curfew after several nights of protests.
