| | Charges dropped against state trooper Ryan Londregan in the shooting death of Ricky Cobb II |
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty announced Sunday she will drop charges against state trooper Ryan Londregan in the death of Ricky Cobb II. Cobb was killed during a traffic stop in Minneapolis last year.
In a court hearing last month, Londregan pleaded not guilty to murder, manslaughter and assault charges. He also asked for a speedy trial in the case.
Moriarty said new evidence would make it impossible to prove unauthorized use of force. | |

Minneapolis police officer Jamal “Molly” Mitchell had “a heart for people.”
Whether it was flashing his big smile or chatting up new people, Mitchell always tried to uplift the people around him.
“If he saw somebody on the corner with a pan, he's going to dig in his pocket and he's going to give,” said Janet Raper-Edwards, Mitchell’s mother. “He just loved people. You know, he just loved helping people. That's just how Jamal was, he always wanted to be a help to somebody.” | |
