Scores of water bottles flew from the crowd toward the officers, and in return police sprayed an eye-irritating chemical at the group.Image:George Floyd died in Minneapolis after police officer Derek Chauvin was filmed kneeling on his neck for at least eight minutes during his arrest for allegedly using a fake $20 note in a shop.
Chauvin, who was sacked following Mr Floyd's death, has now been charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter, prosecutors said. A statement issued by Mr Floyd's family said Chauvin's arrest was a"welcome but overdue step" and called for the other three officers involved in the incident to be detained."For four officers to inflict this kind of unnecessary, lethal force - or watch it happen - despite outcry from witnesses who were recording the violence - demonstrates a breakdown in training and policy by the city," the family said.
"The pain that the black community feels over this murder and what it reflects about the treatment of black people in America is raw and is spilling out onto streets across America."
Rioting for a criminal who was out robbing people who sadly dies after being arrested but would people go out rioting for the police man if the police man had died and not the criminal .?
1. Nobody deserves to die like this.... the cop should be incarcerated for this crime. 2. The rioters, looters, vandals and arsonists should also be incarcerated too. Why attack working class people’s properties and business’s. The issue is with the cops NOT the innocent public.
hi guys，Learn some basic knowledge about protest from Hong Kong protesters

You are about as credible as CNN. A man died. Have some respect instead of of turning it into a leftist political campaign. His life was worth more than that.
Why are you blaming trump sky? I am watching live feeds of the riots. I am British. Stoking the lying narrative? They arrested a black CNN journo? They did. They also arrested white CNN journos too. I watched it live. So why are you doing this. Nobody believes the media lies.
Thugs being thugs, and using a poor mans death as an excuse to rob, steal and loot.
The CNN building got trashed.
teaandabikkie This totally unnecessary murder shows how racism by cops kills innocent people.The victim didn’t fight back. He suffered a fit and died with the weight of a hefty mans knee restricting his breathing. The causation of this death is directly attributable to the actions of police.
Sky news is a UK news channel first and foremost, it’s over obsessive coverage of US news, smacks of lazy journalism, copy and paste CNN..
This is not violence, this is democracy and freedom.
Katewms Protests? Ffs
This is when I stop feeling for black people when the answer is to burn n loot helped on by white people Covid-19 Virus will thin them out Burning buildings and throwing missiles ain't going to help justice for Floyd
This is exactly what they want the media have whipped up a racewar rhetoric and chaos ensues
If it’s violent then it’s not a protest
Another opportinity to rob, loot, thieve, terrorise. What a great protest. And the backing from all the black 'celebs' endorsing the looting. Absolute disgrace that you think of looting rather than the person who died. Just shows the mentality. Showed your true colour(s).🤔
'turn violent' 🤔. His death was violent. Funny how Anti-vaxers, anti - lockdown, WHITE men campaign with guns and it isn't reported as violent.
The rhetoric of race-baiting is playing out in real-time as a collapsing economy, financial insecurity, and fear of an invisible enemy has driven people from lockdown to outrage. Hate and anger have the upper hand as leadership heads to the links.MAGA2020
