New York City officials hoped for a peaceful way forward as the city entered a fourth day of protests against police brutality that have left police cars burned and hundreds of people under arrest.

Thousands of people on Sunday again marched through multiple neighbourhoods, chanting, kneeling in the street, and falling silent for a minute in front of the neon-adorned NYPD station in Times Square in honour of people killed by police.

Hours after he spoke, demonstrations resumed. Like the past two days, they got off to a largely peaceful start. The mood had been initially light Saturday, too, but largely peaceful protests devolved into clashes between police and protesters later in the evening. Demonstrators smashed shop windows, threw objects at officers, set police vehicles on fire and blocked roads. Graffiti was scrawled on Manhattan's famed St. Patrick's Cathedral.

At a briefing with reporters Sunday, the department's top intelligence and counter-terrorism official, John Miller, said that before the protests began, some anarchist groups had planned for trouble by gathering supplies of rocks and bottles, and used scouts to spot potential vandalism targets. Elsewhere in New York, people cleaned up Sunday after shop windows were shattered and vehicles torches in Rochester and demonstrators set fire to a tractor trailer in Albany.

The governor said state Attorney General Letitia James will investigate actions by both NYPD officers and protesters and report back within 30 days.
