Chief orders investigation into police response to protest over Madison shooting

MINNEAPOLIS - The Minneapolis police chief is asking anyone to step forward with information about a downtown demonstration over a police shooting in Madison, Wisconsin.

The group Black Lives Matter Minneapolis claims a 10-year-old boy was among those police sprayed with a chemical irritant as dozens of people marched Wednesday night.

Minneapolis Police Chief Janee Harteau says the group's concerns will be investigated. Harteau also says she spoke to the boy's mother to see how he was doing.
