Good morning and welcome to Fox News First. Here's what you need to know as you start your day … Minnesota unrest after Daunte Wright shooting death leads to 60 arrests, police say Police in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, made more than 60 arrests for rioting and other offenses Tuesday night, the third night of protests since Sunday's police shooting death of Daunte Wright. Officers made "many arrests for riot and other criminal behaviors," Minnesota State Patrol Col. Matt Langer said in a news conference early Wednesday morning. "The behaviors that we continue to see are unacceptable and we are not going to tolerate them ...It is not acceptable and it will not be tolerated if you choose to do criminal activity and destroy property and throw objects and make it unsafe for people to come and exercise their First Amendment rights." Some of the rioters had thrown projectiles, including bricks and bottles, at officers, said Booker Hodges, an assistant commissioner for the Minnesota Department for Public Safety. Fox News reporter Mike Tobin said the makeup of protesters changed vastly on Tuesday night - and some identified as Antifa. "On Sunday night it was all about the locals that were here and they were genuine and they were angry. As it goes on, you get more people coming in from out of town," he told Laura Ingraham. "I had a lot of people - several people I spoke with tonight – who identified themselves as Antifa and angrily so." CLICK HERE FOR MORE ON OUR TOP STORY.

SOME PARTING WORDS U.S. Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., dismissed the notion that America is a racist nation during an appearance Tuesday night on "Fox News Primetime." "We are not perfect, but I think we are good," Kennedy said. "We have racists in our country, just like everyplace else." Kennedy also rejected the idea put forth by some that police officers are racist. "Many of our law enforcement agencies are majority-minority," the senator noted, adding later, "If you hate cops just because they are cops, you don't know a thing about them. The next time you get in trouble, call a crackhead." Not signed up yet for Fox News First? Click here to find out what you're missing.
