A Minnesota State Patrol trooper, identified as Ryan Londregan, has been charged with second-degree murder and manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Ricky Cobb II, a 33-year-old Black man, during an early-morning traffic stop in Minneapolis last July. Londregan is facing three criminal counts after the Hennepin County Attorney's Office deemed his use of deadly force not justified when Cobb refused to exit his vehicle and took his foot off the brake. The charges have highlighted tensions between law enforcement officials and prosecutors.
