Brooklyn Center, MN police on Monday released bodycam footage of the moments leading to the fatal shooting of 20-year-old Daunte Wright.
The bodycam footage shows that Daunte Wright resisted arrest and fled the scene.
Police were in the process of cuffing Wright during a traffic stop when he broke free and jumped in his car.
The officer screamed, “Taser! Taser! Taser!” before she discharged her weapon.
According to the police chief, the officer “accidentally discharged” her weapon instead of using a taser.
Daunte Wright crashed his car after he tried to flee the scene.

And it seems we have a new “George Floyd” on our hands as George Floyd’s family’s attorney Ben Crump and co-counsel Jeff Storms just confirmed that they have been retained by the family of Daunte Wright, the 20-year-old Black man who was shot and killed by a Brooklyn Center police officer yesterday.
Mr. Wright’s death also occurred as Minneapolis heads towards the final stages of the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer charged with murdering Mr. Floyd.
These ghetto lottery tickets sure pay off better than the state-run ones.
EVERYBODY gets $27-million!
They might as well just go ahead and pay this family off right now. The story is not going to get any better.

I guess they haven’t been watching the trial and the miserable job the prosecution has done- but oh well-
Ya gotta know they are licking their chops awaiting the big payoff
Yup, goodbye Minni. Enjoy the suck of your own making.
Second verse
Same as the first!
Al Sharpton is on the phone with his travel agent
Pay up suckas!
Daunte Wright. He could turn the world on with his smile.
Beat me to it. I wonder if Daunte’s family is going to get $27 million?
I hope so. I hope each and every single individual in Minneapolis has to borrow money to pay out to these thugs.
So, is she yelling, “Taser!” to the suspect?
“I will shoot!” seems more of a deterrent, whether a handgun or taser is used.
She accidentally pulled out her real gun and shot this guy?
I couldn’t make up the story line if I was writing a fiction book. No one would believe me
He was a good boy
loved his momma
working on his GED
was planning to marry his baby momma
an aspiring rapper
I imagine it surprised the guy she shot also.
The ones with the blood on their hands are the politicians who decided that police departments were too “neanderthal”.
Crazy 'bout Elvis/Loves horses/and his girlfriend too.
If Floyd was worth 27 million this guy is worth 50
Officers are trained to yell taser so their fellow officers know they are not using a firearm.
