Cops declare Minneapolis protests unlawful as they clash with demonstrators outside of police station after the boarded-up home of cop Kimberly Potter who shot Daunte Wright dead was targeted
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Cop Kimberly Potter is said to have confused her gun for a taser when she shot at Daunte Wright Sunday

  • Her home was barricaded up Tuesday after a police source said that they anticipate protests there

  • Curfews are in place for Brooklyn Center, Minneapolis, St. Paul and surrounding areas from 10pm local time

  • About 90 minutes before the curfew deadline, state police announced over a loudspeaker that the gathering outside the Brooklyn Center police station had been declared unlawful and ordered the crowds to disperse

  • Cops used pepper spray and flash bombs to try to disperse the crowd; protesters used umbrellas as shields

  • Wright's killing, just 10 miles from the scene of George Floyd's death last May in Minneapolis, has led to unrest in Minnesota and nationwide; the trial of Derek Chauvin, charged in Floyd's death, is ongoing in the city

  • Protests also broke out overnight Tuesday in New York, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Portland and Seattle

BLM's Latest Martyred Saint: Daunte Wright Had A Warrant Out For His Arrest For Attempted Aggravated Robbery Charges After 'choking And Holding A Woman At Gunpoint For $820 In 2019
[Daily Mail, etc]
  • Daunte Wright was shot dead by Brooklyn Center Police Officer Kimberly Potter Sunday after he was pulled over for 'expired license plate tags'

  • DailyMail.com can reveal that Wright, 20, had a warrant out for his arrest for attempted aggravated robbery charges at the time

  • Charging papers allege Wright and a second man, Emajay Driver, attended a party in December 2019 at the home of two women in Osseo, Minnesota

  • The women allowed the pair to crash after they said they didn't have a ride home

  • The next morning, after one of the women went to withdraw $820 in rent money, Wright allegedly held her at gunpoint and demanded she give him the cash

  • His bail was originally set at $100k with orders that he should not contact the victim or any witnesses, refrain from drugs and alcohol and not have any weapon

  • It was revoked in July last year due to his 'failure to not possess a firearm or ammunition' and not keeping in touch with his probation officer

  • DailyMail.com has also learned that online speculation that Wright did not know there was a warrant out for his arrest is false
