No charges will be filed against the two Minneapolis officers involved in the shooting death last fall of Jamar Clark, Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman announced Wednesday.
Freeman disclosed his decision in a downtown Minneapolis news conference two weeks after bypassing the more common option of letting a grand jury make a charging determination.
Freeman brought with him to the highly anticipated announcement evidence from the investigation into Clarks death on a North Side street as well as video that law enforcement collected from the scene that night.
Freeman said the evidence supports the officers' account of the confrontation, in which they said Clark grabbed one of their guns and that he was not handcuffed at the time he was shot.
Freeman said one of the officers recounted saying to his partner: "He's got my gun. He's got my gun."

Should be an interesting weekend around here.
My wife works in downtown St. Paul. I believe I will go get her early to avoid the riot hour traffic.
I was planning on going to the Sports Show tomorrow or Friday.
Maybe not.
I might have to put the plow back on the truck to clear the streets.
Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.
Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.
The BLM crowd of about 200 that has been doing the protesting since the shooting will swell to about 400 for the riots. Still enough to be a pain in the a$$.
Do it right:
Watching the presser right now. Lots of angry black women basically calling Freeman a liar.
Black Lies matter
Rainy here.. wash the vermin away.
My sister works downtown MPLS. I just left her a voicemail.
She rides the bus.
It needs to pour.

You reminded me of the movie “Soylent Green” and the scene where unwashed masses are harvested.
“The scoops! The scoops!”
Comment from Youtube: “trump needs to build these when he becomes president”.
Are there any other kind?
“There will be riots.”
I kinda doubt that. Still a little too cold in that part of the world yet.
If this report had been released Memorial Day week, the riots would be guaranteed.

My wife transfers buses at Nicollet Mall. Should be interesting tonight.
“Should be an interesting weekend around here. “
I understand the protesters are blocking streets already in the hood. (Where I live) I hope I get home without hassle.
