A video circulating on Facebook, filmed by Reynolds, appears to show the aftermath of the shooting.
Reynolds says in the video that they were pulled over for a broken tail light. Police asked Castile for his license and registration. As he was reaching for his wallet, she says Castile informed officers that he had a firearm in his possession, and a conceal-and-carry permit.
Reynolds says in the video that an officer then shot her boyfriend four times.
Valerie Castile tells WCCO that her son was a cafeteria supervisor at J.J. Hill Montessori School in St. Paul.
The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is investigating.

I'm honestly over it.
Black people are the most hated "race" of people in world.
The negative almost always outweighs the positives.
You go to Latin America, the black people have the worse conditions
You come to the US the black people have the worse conditions
Black majority countries even have to live in hell because of white colonial powers.
Asians ridicule us
Europeans don't want us there.
Colonialism ****ed up my people and everytime we fight back were painted as crazy paranoid villians.
I'm sick of it.
