'I simply don't know what they were thinking,' said the Minnesota State Patrol's chief.
Law enforcement has also not named the driver who was killed, but his family has identified him as Ricky Cobb II. The man's face is blurred in body-worn camera footage released by the state patrol on Tuesday.
"Troopers learned that the driver was actually wanted by law enforcement in Ramsey County in connection with a felony Order for Protection violation," Langer said. The driver - who is Black - asks for a more detailed explanation. When Cobb asks whether the stop is related to a warrant, the trooper replies, "No, it's not a warrant." Cobb then refuses to get out of the car.
Both troopers are seen falling to the ground as Cobb drives away, the footage shows. A third trooper is also seen standing next to the car.
