A Connecticut state trooper was arrested Tuesday more than two years after he fatally shot a motorist who was boxed in by police after a high-speed chase.
This Jan. 15, 2020, still image from dashboard camera video released by the Connecticut State Police shows Trooper Brian North after discharging his weapon and fatally shooting Mubarak Soulemane following a high-speed chase. North was arrested Tuesday night, April 19, 2022, in connection with the shooting, state police said.
North was released on bond, and he has since been placed on paid administrative leave and his police powers were suspended while the criminal proceedings continue, state police said in a statement. State police said North shot through the driver's door window seven times after Soulemane displayed a knife.
“The family of Mubarak Soulemane is very happy that, after 2+ years, Trooper Brian North ... may be brought to justice,” Mark Arons, a lawyer for Soulemane’s family, said in a statement calling Soulemane's death a murder. “It’s a long road ahead. But this is a good day.”
