Officer identified in traffic stop shooting
Print Edition
MINNEAPOLIS area police officer Jeronimo Yanez has been identified as the patrolman who fatally shot Philando Castile during a traffic stop this week, state investigators said on Thursday.
Yanez and fellow officer Joseph Kauser, both with the St Anthony Police Department for four years, were involved in the shooting on Wednesday evening, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension said in a statement.
Both officers are on administrative leave, the bureau said.
It said Yanez approached the vehicle from the driver’s side and Kauser from the passenger side. At one point, Yanez fired his weapon, striking Castile multiple times, the statement said.
Yanez radioed a request for an ambulance and Castile was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center where he was later pronounced dead, the statement said.
