Jurors were set to hear closing arguments Monday in the manslaughter trial of former Minnesota police officer Kim Potter, who fatally shot Daunte Wright while yelling “Taser” earlier this year.

Potter, 49, cried on the witness stand Friday as she recounted what she said was the “chaotic” moment she shot the 20-year-old Black motorist during the April traffic stop-turned-arrest in the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Center.

“I didn’t want to hurt anybody,” said Potter, who is charged with first- and second-degree manslaughter.
