Prosecutors have decided not to charge a Minneapolis woman and her son after one of them fatally shot a man they say was trying to break into their home.

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office says the two were standing at the threshold of their patio door when the shots were fired, killing 30-year-old Martin Johnson on Feb. 22. Johnson attempted to break into the home and refused to leave the backyard, officials said.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey on Monday announced a new policy for search warrants following the police shooting of a Black man in a downtown apartment, with officers required to knock and wait a certain length of time before entering a residence.

Police would have to wait 20 seconds before entering a residence while serving a daytime warrant, and 30 seconds for nighttime searches. No-knock warrants would be banned except in the most extreme circumstances, such as a hostage situation.
