According to a press conference held Monday, the officer who allegedly drew her service weapon and shot Wright, who at that time appeared to be resisting arrest, did so by accident, mistaking the gun for her taser.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Elliot called for the police officer to be fired Monday, telling media that, \u201cmy position is that we cannot afford to make mistakes that lead to the loss of life of other people in our profession. I do fully support releasing the officer of her duties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before exiting the same press conference, Boganey simply noted that city employees cannot be fired without an investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll employees working for the city of Brooklyn Center are entitled to due process with respect to discipline,\u201d Boganey said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/daunte-wright-shooting-brooklyn-center-city-manager-fired-call-due-process-police-officer\">according to Fox News<\/a>. \u201cThis employee will receive due process and that\u2019s really all that I can say today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Boganey was then asked whether he personally believed the officer should be relieved of duty.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I were to answer that question, I\u2019d be contradicting what I said a moment ago \u2014 which is to say that all employees are entitled to due process and after that due process, discipline will be determined,\u201d he replied, reiterating his call for an investigation. \u201cIf I were to say anything else, I would actually be contradicting the idea of due process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That was too much for the city council, Fox News notes, who voted, in an emergency meeting Monday night, to relieve Boganey of his duties.<\/p>\n<p>The council, the outlet said, \u201cvoted to fire Boganey, a longtime city employee, during an emergency meeting, the Star Tribune reported. At the same meeting, the council voted to give the mayor command authority over the city\u2019s police department.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At least one council member said she personally felt Boganey was doing a \u201cgood job,\u201d but she feared that his comments about due process would further inflame tensions and lead Brooklyn Center residents to engage in violence in violation of the city\u2019s curfew.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt a virtual council workshop, Council Member Kris Lawrence-Anderson said she voted to remove the city manager because she feared for her property and retaliation by protestors if she had voted to keep him,\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/www.startribune.com\/brooklyn-center-mayor-takes-on-oversight-of-police-department-fires-city-manager\/600045002\/?refresh=true\"> the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was doing a great job. I respect him dearly,\u201d&nbsp; she said. \u201cI didn\u2019t want repercussions at a personal level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The riots materialized despite Boganey\u2019s departure. <a href=\"https:\/\/kstp.com\/news\/hundreds-gather-at-brooklyn-center-police-department-to-protest-shooting-of-daunte-wright\/6073215\/\">KSTP Minneapolis reported Tuesday morning<\/a> that 40 arrests were made overnight in Brooklyn Center and in Minneapolis, including arrests for rioting. Several law enforcement agencies were involved in handling violence Monday night, including around 500 members of the Minnesota National Guard and officials from the Minnesota State Police.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
