1:53Now PlayingHundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the Brooklyn Center, Minnesota police station on Thursday for a fifth straight night, shouting at police and shaking the security fence.
The protests began after a 20-year-old Black motorist named Daunte Wright was shot and killed during a traffic stop.
Wright's family members joined with community leaders Thursday in calling for more serious charges against the white former police officer who fatally shot him, comparing her case to the murder charge brought against a Black officer who killed a white woman in nearby Minneapolis.
Former Brooklyn Center police Officer Kim Potter was charged with second-degree manslaughter in Sunday's shooting of Wright.
The former police chief in Brooklyn Center, a majority nonwhite suburb, said Potter mistakenly fired her handgun when she meant to use her Taser. Both the chief and Potter resigned Tuesday.
Potter - who was released on $100,000 bond hours after her arrest Wednesday - appeared alongside her attorney, Earl Gray, at her initial appearance Thursday over a video call, saying little. Her next court appearance was set for May 17.
