Minnesota -- April 12, 2021: Just a short distance from where George Floyd died, Daunte Wright. 20, was shot and killed

after a traffic stop.

AP reported:

Wright’s mother said her son called her to say, “Mom, I’m getting pulled over,” and, “They’re asking about insurance.” She said she then heard officers telling him to get out of the car. When he asked why, officers told him they would explain once he got out of the vehicle. She said officers then told him to put his phone down, and then she heard someone telling her son not to run. She then said an officer ended his call.
