David Dorn, 77, was killed while responding to an alarm at a pawnshop overnight Monday, St. Louis Police Department announced in a news conference Tuesday."Throughout the night, we made 25 arrests for various charges. And then there were 55 businesses and counting that were burglarized and had property damage," St. Louis Police Chief John Hayden told reporters. Mourners left flowers at the scene of David Dorn's death.
— Donald J. Trump June 3, 2020 President Donald Trump also paid tribute to Dorn on Twitter, saying,"Our highest respect to the family of David Dorn, a Great Police Captain from St. Louis, who was viciously shot and killed by despicable looters last night. We honor our police officers, perhaps more than ever before. Thank you!"Trump's tweet was not universally welcomed. Filmmaker Ava DuVernay tweeted in response:"We won't let you use this Black man for your political gain.
abbydphillip Rest in Heaven. 🙏
Looks like BLM didn’t get the announcement
Why was he responding alone?
The murder of an innocent black police chief has solved all of America's problems right? I thought these peaceful protesters simply set out to stop America's racist ways. Killing more black people must be the way they do it. Makes total sense.
Awwwwww
What was the race of the killer
Day late & a dollar short on reporting cold blooded murder of David Dorn. His murder was newsworthy BEFORE Trump tweeted about it.
Murdered by looters* get it right
You can donate to David Dorn’s family here. Heartbreaking. DavidDorn
🙏🏾 ✌️
nhannahjones I just heard you say in an interview that destroying property isn’t violence. Interesting as this retired cop was murdered during the looting taking place. You don’t know what the hell you are talking about. You are a psychotic, mentally ill, sinister individual. LiberalsHate
nhannahjones But according to nhannahjones property theft is non-violent?
Another black life gone. Black lives matter!!
Posted at 5a.m... When everyone’s sleeping. CNNSucks
Jali_Cat Finally. It took us two days of shaming you before you made a statement that some Black lives actually do matter!
cnn is aiding in this type of violence with their adulation of looters and rioters and little coverage of effective protesters on message GeorgeFloyd .
Not only YOU FAILED TO REPORT THIS ON TIME DESPITE IT BEING SHOVED IN YOUR FACE BUT YOU ALSO PUT WORDS IN THIS MAN'S SON'S MOUTH TO EXCUSE THE KILLERS! This should be treated with as much outrage as Floyd's killers. But you are making excuses for the killers. Go figure.
Jali_Cat It’s about time! No wonder no one pays attention to you you’re always a day late and a dollar short and mostly lying
ACAB
DavidDorn How nice of you to finally get around to reporting on this poor gentleman after ignoring his death and now that you're succumbing to shame. God bless his family.
CNN shamed into covering this story. I guess it was too hard for them to go there.
nhannahjones
These lives were lost because cops killed an unarmed handcuffed man and the system did not hold the cops accountable... how many of these beautiful people would have died if George Floyd was not killed or the cops involved were arrested and brought to Justice
So did y’all spend at least a segment on this? Or just in passing on the way to commercial?
Lol safe protesters
I thought you said all the folks out were decent and peaceful. Another CNN screwjob lie.
I guess his black life didn’t matter
Just stop , just stop!
This should be at the top of your news hour. Not fucking Trumps photo opp 3 days in a row that nobody cares about anymore.
Why are most of the chaotic areas controlled by the Democratic Party?
Took you long enough to cover this smh
The national violence caused by the death of black people is largely the result of the Democratic Party’s indulgence. The Democratic Party will certainly be responsible for this.
Good lord took long enough
This is what my grandmother meant when she would say “A day late and a dollar short”. Thanks for finally getting around to reporting on this CNN. We hope it wasn’t too much of an imposition.
Shocking the madness going on at the moment... another senseless murder R.I.P Sir.
This is horrendous, with any death, only love goes to his family for their loss during this time and the continued stand by the majority to demand justice for him remains DavidDorn justice This search for justice and protection also includes the 108k dead and growing... 😢
Way to break a story 2 days old cnnbrk.
Your horrible reporting and twisting the news is wreaking havoc on our country!!!! You are liars and should be ashamed!!!! Your making racial hatred worse!!!!
DanHevia Pretty sure we’re going to find out it was a cop that did it.
His death is on you and every single over privileged liberal who cowardly sits behind their computer supporting and justifying violent riots. Protests accomplish more than riots ever will.
Murdered by looting criminals. Wheres the outrage. A meth addicted, porn star causes riots. A good man's murder, is 2nd page news. You people are hacks.
His life was taken because a black guy wanted a new TV without paying for it. This murder was despicable.
Wow. Your only 24 hours late reporting this. You are crap asa news organization. Lemon and clump are nothing but opinion mongers and do not know what journalists even look like. FIRE THEM BOTH.
Was that so hard? ⏱️
His blood is on your hands cnn
What a painful news and great loss. No more violence and looting. My thoughts with his family. So sad.
Not acceptable.
No problem now right? No artists putting inspiring messages or anything of the sort... fucking hipocrits.
Man it took little while to run this you are trash CNN...
likes this 👍
He was murdered by these thugs as it was played on Facebook live.
Wow. It only took you about 2 days to post this. But when it's about Trump, you can't get it out fast enough. Gross.
why there are policemen killed, nobody condemns and demonstrates
This is fucking sad 😢
Took your time
☹️
Finally got something posted, I bet this was a tough choice for you guys. 🙄
Biden not speaking out on how his Democrat States and Cities , totally run by Democrats including the police, like in Minneapolis, that campaign promises wasn’t done on police reform tactics. Democrat policies didn’t work, they voted off lies.
Cnn is ok with his death.

aldin_ww Too bad he’s not alive to forgive anyone at this moment. What kind of a crappy statement is that, anyway?
Finally said something about DavidDorn , what took them so long ?
CNN reporting looting? Has hell frozen over? BlackLivesMattter GeorgeFloyd GeorgeLloyd DavidDorn
Still can't arrest the 3 cops?
So much death and destruction caused by democrats. Why don't you get of your butt and report how many minority owned businesses have been destroyed during these 'peaceful protests '
Not so peaceful protests. Riots. They word to describe them is, Riots.
rioters and ancharcists murdered him over a 1300 dollar tv, just for clarification
You just now are reporting this almost 48 hours later....
Well over 24 hours after pressure CNN tries to cover their ass by covering DavidDorn
Defending against them while forgiving them...ah CNN Schrodinger, you've done it again.
🙏🏿
Peaceful 🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐 Trump was right about it , democarts and fake media are destroying our country
I like how you had to add would have forgiven the violence but I haven’t heard to many people say how George Floyd’s family didn’t want destruction of the cities
All protesters should be free. All looters should be sent to prison
Sad
Wow!!!!! This is NOT REAL! CNN reported this?
This looks like a war zone. It's Seattle.• In the middle of a damn residential neighborhood. Police just started firing on members of the media. Cela ressemble à une zone de guerre.
The Police simulated a tribute to Georges Floyd to attract the nearest Protestants so that they could shoot them with tear gas ... BlackLivesMatter GeorgeFloyd blackoutuesday
Finally
you guys are hipocrates....
