Several media outlets have reporters and correspondents in the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Center following the Daunte Wright shooting.
During a live segment on CNN, reporter Sara Sidner was confronted by a demonstrator during protests. The Hillrelayed the dialogue between Sidner and the demonstrator, who wanted the CNN reporter to leave.
“Y’all be twisting up the stories and [explative]. “All the press and all the extra [explative] y’all do makes this worse,” the demonstrator said.
Sidner would respond to the demonstrator but wanting to start a dialogue and letting him know that their segment is live on CNN. However, she also responded on Twitter to the demonstrator’s suggestion that they should leave as she covers the unrest occurring in Minneapolis.
“I’m not going anywhere. I love Minneapolis, its surrounding suburbs, including #BrooklynCenter, and its people. I get that people are mad. It’s normal. I take no offense. Emotions are understandably high after the killing of #DanteWright,” Sidner Tweeted.
Protest in Minneapolis continues along with other demonstrations across the United States.
