Arrest Made in Minneapolis Police Protest Site Shooting

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) —  Minneapolis police say they have arrested a 23-year-old man in the overnight shootings of five Black Lives Matters protesters.

Police say the man, who is white, was arrested in suburban Bloomington.Officers are still seeking two other white male suspects.

None of the protesters suffered life-threatening injuries during Monday night's shooting. They were among scores of people who have demonstrated for more than a week outside a north Minneapolis police precinct in the wake of the death of 23-year-old Jamar Clark.

Some of the protesters say they don't intend to stop their demonstrations despite the shooting. About 50 people were outside the building on Tuesday morning, with more trickling in, and some said they planned to stay despite a request from Clark's family to end the protests.
A protester who gave his name as Big Don Carlito says demonstrations no longer have anything to do with the Clark family. He says, "If we fold on it, they won."
