Civil unrest gripped a Minneapolis suburb for a second night on Monday after the city's police chief said a fatal police shooting of a young Black man appeared to result from an officer mistakenly opening fire with her gun instead of a Taser during a traffic stop.
Hundreds of protesters braving a steady downpour and defying a curfew ordered by Gov. Tim Walz clashed with police in riot gear as darkness fell outside police headquarters in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.
Many of the demonstrators had arrived from an outdoor vigil for family, friends and supporters of the slain motorist, Daunte Wright, 20, whose death Sunday after being pulled over for an expired vehicle registration roiled a region already on edge.
