The Latest: Lawyer: Prosecutor decision vindicates officers

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Latest on the federal investigation into whether the civil rights of a young black man who was shot by Minneapolis police were violated (all times local):
12:30 p.m.
The attorney for a Minneapolis police officer who fatally shot a man last fall says the officer and his partner have been vindicated by a federal prosecutor's decision not to file criminal civil rights charges against them.
Dustin Schwarze and Mark Ringgenberg were the officers involved in a fatal confrontation last November with 24-year-old Jamar Clark. The officers said Clark was struggling with Ringgenberg and had his hand on the officer's gun when Schwarze shot him.
U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger announced Wednesday that he would bring no charges against the men due to insufficient evidence.
Schwarze's attorney, Fred Bruno, says the decision was no surprise after a state prosecutor reached the same conclusion in March. Bruno says the chances of two independent investigations arriving at the same result are slim unless the officers' actions were justified.
