July 6: Philando Castile, a 32-year-old elementary school cafeteria worker, is fatally shot after St. Anthony police officer Jeronimo Yanez stops his car in Falcon Heights. Castile's girlfriend livestreams the aftermath on Facebook, and the widely shared video draws protesters to the scene.
July 7: Protesters converge overnight at Gov. Mark Dayton's official residence in St. Paul. Dayton says he doesn't think the shooting would have happened if Castile had been white. More than 1,000 people gather that evening at the school where Castile worked, and hundreds walk back afterward to the governor's residence.
July 8: Ramsey County Attorney John Choi says he'll decide later whether he or a grand jury will rule on bringing charges against Yanez.
July 9: Yanez's attorney Thomas Kelly says the shooting had nothing to do with Castile's race, and that Yanez was reacting to fact that Castile was carrying a gun. Police use chemical irritants to clear rock-and-bottle-throwing demonstrators from Interstate 94 in St. Paul. Officers arrest more than 100 people. Police say 21 officers were hurt; none seriously.
July 10: The governor condemns the I-94 shutdown as "unlawful and extremely dangerous."
July 11: Forty-six people are charged with rioting for the I-94 protest. Kelly says Yanez thought Castile looked like "a possible match" for a suspect in a recent armed robbery.
July 12: Castile's family says it will file a lawsuit in his death.
July 13: Police arrest 42 protesters who block traffic on Interstate 35W near downtown Minneapolis during the morning rush hour.
July 14: A funeral for Castile at the St. Paul Cathedral draws thousands of mourners.
