The victim, identified as 20-year-old Daunte Wright, died after he was pulled over for an alleged traffic violation on the 6300 block of Orchard Avenue just before 2 p.m. on Sunday, April 11.

受害者是20岁的道恩特·赖特(Daunte Wright)。4月11日周日下午2点前，他在果园大道6300街区因涉嫌违反交通规则被警察拦下后死亡。

According to a Brooklyn Center police statement, officers determined that Wright had an outstanding warrant.

根据布鲁克林中心的一份警方声明，警官们认定赖特有一张未执行的逮捕令。

"At one point as officers were attempting to take the driver into custody, the driver re-entered the vehicle," police said. "One officer discharged their firearm, striking the driver. The vehicle traveled several blocks before striking another vehicle."

警方说：“在警察试图拘留这名司机的时候，司机重新进入了车里。一名警察开枪打死了司机。这辆车行驶了几个街区后撞上了另一辆车。”

Wright was pronounced dead at the scene. A female passenger sustained non-life threatening injuries during the crash.

赖特被宣布当场死亡。一名女乘客在事故中受了伤，但没有生命危险。

The incident sparked protests which continued late into the night on Sunday, with police seen attempting to disperse the crowd using tear gas and flash bangs.

这起事件引发的抗议活动持续到周日深夜，人们看到警察试图使用催泪瓦斯和闪光弹驱散人群。

Among the crowd were people who were attended a St. Paul rally earlier in the day for the families of people killed by police, reported CBS Minnesota.

据哥伦比亚广播公司明尼苏达分部报道，人群中有一些人参加了当天早些时候在圣保罗为被警察杀害的人的家属举行的集会。

The shooting also occurred during the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer accused of killing George Floyd, whose death last May sparked worldwide Black Lives Matter protests.

这起枪击事件还发生在前明尼阿波利斯警官德里克·肖万受审期间，他被控杀害了乔治·弗洛伊德。去年5月，弗洛伊德的死引发了全球范围内的“黑人的命也是命”抗议活动。

Images and videos of the protests have been shared on social media, including one in which the crowd chant Wright's name while marching towards the Brooklyn Center Police Department building, located just a few miles from the scene of the shooting.

社交媒体上流传着抗议活动的图片和视频，其中一段视频中，人群一边高喊赖特的名字，一边向距离枪击现场仅几英里的布鲁克林中心警察局大楼游行。

Police continued to use flash bangs and chemical munitions in an attempt to disperse the crowd for more than an hour, as numerous videos from the scene have shown.

正如现场的许多视频显示的那样，警方继续使用闪光弹和化学武器驱散人群，持续了一个多小时。




At around 11:30 p.m, Brooklyn Center police declared the crowd an unlawful assembly and told everyone there to leave immediately or face arrest.

晚上11:30左右，布鲁克林中心的警察宣布这群人是非法集会，并让所有人立即离开，否则将面临逮捕。

Brooklyn Center Mayor Mike Elliot later imposed a curfew in Brooklyn Center, which will be in place until 6 a.m. on Monday.

布鲁克林中心市长埃利奥特随后在布鲁克林中心实施宵禁，宵禁将持续到周一早上6点。

"We want to make sure everyone is safe. Please be safe and please go home," Elliot tweeted.

“我们想要确保每个人都是安全的。请保证安全，请回家。”艾略特在推特上写道。

Elliot had earlier described the shooting as "tragic" while asking protesters to continue to be peaceful and that "peaceful protesters are not dealt with force."

埃利奥特早些时候称这起枪击事件是“悲剧”，同时要求抗议者继续和平生活，“和平抗议者不会受到武力的处理”。
