Minneapolis — A Black man who was fatally shot by Minneapolis police as they executed a search warrant in a homicide investigation was wrapped in a blanket on a couch when SWAT officers entered the apartment, and displayed a handgun as they shouted at him to show his hands and get on the ground, police body camera video shows.
Police identified the man on Thursday as 22-year-old Amir Locke.
Public information documents released Thursday evening confirm that Officer Mark Hanneman fatally shot him Wednesday morning, CBS Minneapolis reports, adding that police said a loaded handgun was recovered at the scene.
Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
