FULL TITLE: Chaos in Minneapolis: Angry protesters shut down mayor’s press conference as police chief RESIGNS over death of bride-to-be Justine Damond at hands of 'startled' cop

Just hours after the Minneapolis police chief was forced to resign on Friday over the fatal shooting of an Australian woman, outraged protesters took over the mayor's City Hall press conference and called for her resignation.

'We do not want you as our mayor!' a protester yelled at Mayor Betsy Hodges, who asked for the resignation of Police Chief Janeé Harteau following the police-involved shooting death of Justine Damond on Saturday night.

'You have been ineffective as a leader and we want you to take your staff with you because they have terrorized us enough,' the man yelled as protesters in the room called for 'Justice for Justine'.

'I have heard you, and I have listened...,' Mayor Hodges said as she attempted to calm the crowd, but she was immediately interrupted as the man continued to yell: 'You have failed us since you’ve been in office. Stop killing us!'

The crowd of protesters then started chanting, 'Bye, bye Betsy' as the mayor was escorted out of the press conference.

Justine Damond was killed Saturday night after calling 911 to report a possible sexual assault near her home in south Minneapolis, when responding officer, Mohamed Noor, shot her from his squad car.

'Justine didn't have to die. This should not have happened,' Harteau said in a press conference on Thursday.

The BLM people probably thought the white lady cop shot the Muslim Somali guy.

She HAD to hire his stinking muzzie butt to start with. It’s not her fault. If had a choice she probably would have said not “no” but “HELL NO”. Her hands were tied.

Horsecrap. She is as PC as any liberal, and she hired this baboon so she could appear cool to her leftie buds in New York and LA.

If she was so reluctant, why did she put this idiot on a pedestal? She paraded him around like he was a champion 4H boar.

when they have 100 positions to fill and 30 people show up..

fair bet if the can pass the test, or at least come close, they will get the job.

Minneapolis thought filling openings on the police force was hard before this. just wait. it’s gonna get worse.
