- Videos showed Daunte Wright's family clashing with supporters of ex-cop Kim Potter outside court on Friday.
- Potter received a 2-year sentence on Friday for the killing of Wright during a traffic stop in April 2021.
- A video posted to Twitter by WCCO reporter David Shuman showed Wright's sister being led away in handcuffs.
A man got into a confrontation with Daunte Wright's brother after former Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, police officer Kim Potter's sentencing on Friday.
Potter, who was convicted by a jury of first- and second-degree manslaughter charges, was sentenced to two years in prison for the killing of Wright.
A video posted to Twitter by local WCCO reporter David Schuman shows a man confronting supporters of Wright, a 20-year-old Black man Potter fatally shot during an April 2021 traffic stop.
According to Schuman, the unidentifiable man was a supporter of Potter who said that Wright should have complied in the traffic stop, which led to fierce pushback by a group of Wright supporters, including Wright's brother Damik Wright. The man was then led away by security, video shows.
Courtney Ross can be seen in the video telling the man that "Daunte Wright was a lovely young man and I can speak to that because I saw him every day." Ross, who was George Floyd's girlfriend, was also one of Wright's high school teachers.
Wright's killing happened while the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was ongoing. Chauvin was convicted of murdering Floyd, a Black man, after kneeling on his neck for several minutes, asphyxiating him. Floyd's death sparked a national outcry against police abuse and brutality.

Wright can be heard in the video saying "Damik, call mom now" while police restrain her on the ground and place her in handcuffs.
Fox 9 reporter Paul Blume posted a second video of the confrontation between Diamond Wright and police to Twitter. Blume said in the tweet that it is unclear what caused the police altercation with Wright's family members, but one family member had been "detained amid assault allegations."
