Cop’s lawyer blames driver’s gun, not his race — APNewsBreak
Jackson says he wanted to “thank the governor for being forthright about the racial ramifications of the shooting”.

The Bureau said Yanez approached the vehicle from the driver’s side and Kauser from the passenger side.
Reynolds initially described the officer as a “heavyset” Chinese man, according to a transcript of the Facebook live video.
Reynolds said Castile was shot while reaching for his wallet. They were named best in their graduating class, and Dobratz said they seemed cut out for the challenges of police work. He was loving. So even for the police to take him away, nothing from his body language said intimidation.
She could be heard saying Castile was shot after police pulled their auto over, citing a broken tail light. As of now, the Justice Department has not opened a federal investigation into the case.
Yanez radioed for an ambulance as members of the Roseville Police Department and the St. Paul Fire Department administered medical aid. Minneapolis is 64 percent white and St. Paul is 67 percent white, according to the 2010 national census.
The previous year’s report includes a photo of Yanez solemnly standing guard at a memorial to fallen officers at the state Capitol.
Yanez’s attorney hasn’t returned several messages from The Associated Press. Please, officer, don’t tell me you just did this to him. But Dayton says he has no new information since Thursday.
Yanez “is an intelligent person, he has a lot of common sense”, Dobratz said. He declined to elaborate on how Castile displayed the weapon or what led up to the deadly Wednesday traffic stop. His girlfriend broadcast the minutes after the shooting on Facebook.
The U.S. Justice Department, which immediately launched a civil rights investigation into the Baton Rouge shooting, said it would monitor Minnesota’s investigation.
Police did not release any details about the officer who fired except to say he had been placed on paid administrative leave.
“America’s 13 million citizens who are licensed to carry deserve to know exactly what happened and why”, Alan Gottlieb, the group’s founder, said in a statement on Thursday.
“Once the investigation is complete, the BCA will turn its findings over to the Ramsey County Attorney’s Office without recommendation for review under Minnesota statutes”.
In an exclusive interview with CNN this morning, Philando Castile’s family reiterated what we already know: They’re traumatized.
Choi also asked for peace throughout the US and in protests. He said that, in the past, law enforcement ran in families, but that’s “not true anymore”. Martin was shot and killed in 2012 in Florida by a neighborhood watch volunteer. Afterward, a Roseville police officer brought Reynolds home.
But to now have a loved one fatally shot by a police officer she says is overwhelming and hard to comprehend.
The state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is investigating the shooting.
Sen. Lindsey Graham praised the bravery of the officers in Dallas and said he was “horrified” by the shooting. No serious injuries were reported.
He said he does not have any plans to move the demonstrators off the street at this time.
Yanez, who is Latino, is distraught and saddened over the shooting in the St. Paul suburb of Falcon Heights, Kelly said.
In discussing the killing, Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton, a Democrat, has pointed to Castile’s race as a factor. About 50 marchers headed back to the governor’s residence overnight.

Sterling’s and Castile’s families denounced the attack on the Dallas officers. “This has to stop, right now”, she told the crowd.
