Daunte Wright death: Brooklyn Center proposes unarmed traffic stops in new police reform plan
Fox News
The Minnesota city of Brooklyn Center is considering a resolution to reform policing nearly a month after the fatal officer-involved shooting of 20-year-old Daunte Wright that would send unarmed civilians to respond to minor traffic violations and mental health calls.
"The good news is we have the ability to start creating these changes now, today," Elliott said at the meeting. "This resolution will transform our system so that police are not the only available response for everything." The resolution is named after Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler, a 21-year-old with autism who prosecutors said charged at Brooklyn Center officers with a knife before they fatally shot him. Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman ruled last August not to charge the officers involved, KARE reported.More Related News
