The head of the Minneapolis police homicide unit testified that alley lighting was bright enough that he could clearly see the scene where a Minneapolis police officer fatally shot an unarmed woman in 2017.

Mohamed Noor is charged with murder and manslaughter in the death of Justine Ruszczyk Damond. Noor shot Damond as she approached his squad car minutes after calling 911 to report a possible sexual assault behind her home.
