"She was crying and screaming, and she said that they shot him," Ms. Wright recalled as she sobbed. "And then she pointed the phone towards the driver’s seat and my son was laying there, unresponsive. That was the last time that I saw my son, that’s the last time I heard from my son. And I’ve had no explanation since then."

"The day that I got the phone call from my son, two days ago, at 1:47, was the worst day of my life," she told the reporters of the ordeal. "He called and said he just got pulled over by the police."

Ms. Wright then explained that her son told her he was pulled over because he had air fresheners hanging in the rearview mirror. The grieving mother went on to say that the officers asked Wright about his insurance and she told him to put the officers on the call with her so that she could share the information they were asking for.

However, before she could do so, an officer asked her son to step out of the car.

"Daunte asked, 'For what?'" Ms. Wright recalled. "The police officer said, 'I’ll explain to you when you get out of the car'."

The mother then heard as a struggle ensued between her son and the officers.

"Then the police officer asked him to hang up the phone," she said and the call ended. "Three or four seconds went by. I tried calling back to back to back because I didn’t know what was going on."

Moments later, Ms. Wright would see her son unresponsive in his car for the last time.

Brooklyn Center police in Minnesota have said that the fatal gunshot was an accident, per the BBC. They say the officer – Kim Potter – had intended to fire her taser but accidentally fired her gun.

Potter has since resigned from the department.
