Paper \u2018No parking\u2019 signs lined the street near her residence. A Champlin police officer in front of the house said Ms. Potter wasn\u2019t home and referred questions to the Brooklyn Center Police Department. Ms. Potter didn\u2019t respond to calls and texts requesting comment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Potter\u2019s address leaked online Tuesday afternoon, and the home could be seen covered in plywood even before either police or protesters appeared. Neighbors, who spoke to the Wall Street Journal, say they feared the demonstrations, which began just before a declared curfew went into effect, would turn violent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re stressed, we\u2019re nervous. I\u2019ve been told some of the neighbors have left,\u201d one neighbor told the outlet. \u201cIt was a horrible situation. We also feel bad for Mr. Wright\u2019s family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Potter has not appeared in public but resigned on Tuesday. Brooklyn Center police officials said, in a press conference on Monday, that they believe the shooting that left Wright dead was accidental, and that Potter was reaching for her taser when she grabbed her service weapon instead. On bodycam footage released of the incident, Potter can be heard warning Wright about a taser, and yelling, \u201cOh, sh**!\u201d once she realized she\u2019d discharged her gun.<\/p>\n<p>The Washington County Attorney\u2019s Office said Tuesday that is reviewing the case. Potter may face charges, though the prosecutor\u2019s office told media Tuesday that they are currently focused on handling the case of Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer accused of killing George Floyd.<\/p>\n<p>Demonstrations against police turned violent in nearby Minneapolis, Minnesota, and in other areas of the country and, the Daily Mail reports, 60 people were arrested nationwide in a series of incidents. In Portland, Oregon, \u201canti-fascist\u201d protesters who have been demonstrating against police continually since last May, set a government building on fire.<\/p>\n<p>In Brooklyn Center, officers from several jurisdictions, including the Minnesota National Guard, stood watch over protests that quickly spun out of control.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn Tuesday evening, about three dozen National Guard troops lined up alongside police officers behind a fence outside the Brooklyn Center Police Department, the site of protests since Sunday,\u201d the WSJ reported. \u201cMany of the troops and officers had face shields. Some were stationed on the roof of the building.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Police declared the protest a \u201criot\u201d around 8 pm and moved to disperse demonstrators.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome people threw water bottles at the police. About 100 feet away, a group of protesters knelt with their hands in the air,\u201d the WSJ added. \u201cJust before 9 p.m., hundreds of armed local police, National Guard, and state troopers pushed protesters away from the area using armored vehicles, flashbangs, and chemical irritants.\u201d<\/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.
