Residents of Vadnais Heights may want to follow a Minnesota legislative proposal concerning dflers criticize police for shooting armed man who threatened others with knife.
One Minneapolis City Council member has already accused St.
Bodycam footage released by the St.
Paul Police Department shows Xiong moving towards two St.
Paul police officers wielding a knife, failing to comply with repeated orders to drop the knife.
“As we grieve Yia Xiong, we stand in solidarity with his family and community as they mourn this life taken by St.
Paul law enforcement,” a statement from the Minnesota House and Senate DFL People of Color and Indigenous (POCI) Caucus said.
“We, the members of the POCI Caucus, are united in solidarity and in struggle with Asian and Hmong communities, who face targeted discrimination and violence by individuals, police, and the racist, anti-immigrant, and ableist structures that undergird our society.
As the measure advances, residents of Vadnais Heights can follow amendments and contact Heather Gustafson regarding the final language.
