Protests in Minnesota for the third straight night

The third night of protests comes after the officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright, a 20-year old Black man who struggled with police after a traffic stop, and the police chief both resigned.

Mayor Mike Elliott told reporters they resigned after the city council passed a resolution to dismiss both the chief, Tim Gannon, and the officer who shot Wright, Kim Potter, a 26-year veteran of the police force.
