The prosecution played video showing a different perspective of the deadly traffic stop that took the life of Daunte Wright during their opening statement's in the Kim Potter trial. Potter is charged with two counts of manslaughter in the shooting death of Daunte Wright.
As seen on body cam video from April 11, 2021, officers with the Brooklyn Center Public Department pulled over Wright for a traffic stop. Officer Anthony Luckey began to handcuff him against the driver’s side of the car. He suggested Wright was about to resist.
“I’m not doing nothing,” Wright said. He eventually yanked away, getting back into the driver’s seat. A struggle ensued.
“I’ll tase ya!” Potter said, pulling out what turned out to be her gun. She repeated her warning, then finally yelled, “Taser, taser, taser!”
She opened fire, striking Wright, who then drove away.
“Holy sh*t!” Potter said. “I just shot him.”
Wright later crashed into another vehicle, authorities said. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Potter resigned.
