Kim Potter, a 26-year veteran officer, faces second-degree manslaughter charge for shooting Wright near Minneapolis.
The former United States police officer charged with manslaughter for fatally shooting 20-year-old Black motorist Daunte Wright during a traffic stop near Minneapolis last month will go on trial beginning on December 6, a state judge said on Monday. Kimberly Potter, 48, was captured on her colleague’s body-worn camera attempting to arrest Wright on an outstanding warrant in the suburban city of Brooklyn Center on April 11. The footage showed Potter approaching Wright as he stands outside of his car as another officer is arresting him.More Related News
