Fox News
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey on Monday gave a press briefing about the shooting of Daunte Wright in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota this weekend, comparing the situation to several other recent instances where Black men have been killed by police.
Frey described the situation as "cruel" for the community to experience "yet another officer involved shooting while we’re simultaneously adjudicating at a trial yet another officer involved killing." "I’m not going to stand here and tell you that we all – city, county, states, nation – has made the necessary progress when we undoubtedly have not," Frey said. "We have such a long way to go."More Related News
