Monday, Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom announced that his office would review the fatal police shooting of Dolal Idd.

Idd was killed during a traffic stop in south Minneapolis last week.

Backstrom’s office will take the lead on the review of the case to avoid "any appearance of a conflict of interest."
