A Milwaukee jury has acquitted a former police officer of first-degree reckless homicide in the shooting of a black man last August, which led to two nights of rioting in the city.
Dominique Heaggan-Brown, who is also black, shot 23-year-old Sylville Smith after a brief chase that was captured on a police body camera.
