A jury has begun deliberations in the trial of a former Minneapolis police officer accused of fatally shooting a woman while he was responding to a 911 call
At issue in the trial is whether Mohamed Noor was justified in using deadly force when he shot Justine Ruszczyk, an Australian-born woman who was in the United States for her wedding.Noor, a 33-year-old Somali American, pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in the July 2017 shooting, which led to protests and the resignation of Minneapolis' police chief.
In general, officers on trial for shootings are rarely convicted, partly because jurors tend to give police the benefit of the doubt about whether shootings are a legally justified use of force, experts say. A former East Pittsburgh police officer was recently found not guilty in the fatal shooting of an unarmed teenager.Noor expresses remorse Ruszczyk had traveled from her native Australia to Minneapolis to live with her fiancé. She was killed a month before her planned wedding.
