Protesters in Minneapolis on Friday called for harsher punishment for former Minnesota police officer Kim Potter, who was sentenced to two years behind bars in the shooting death of Duante Wright, and while the demonstrations were peaceful, police confirmed several looting incidents later in the day and looters in the area.
Potter was convicted of first- and second-degree manslaughter in the April 2021 killing of Wright, and on Friday was sentenced by Judge Regina Chu to two years in prison.
