New York police are investigating after a video appears to show an NYPD vehicle plowing through a crowd on Saturday during a protest over the death of George Floyd

New York police are investigating after a video appears to show a New York City Police Department truck plowing through a crowd during Saturday's protest.

The 27-second video, which was posted to Twitter, shows an NYPD truck in front of a crowd throwing objects at the vehicle. There is a barricade in front of the truck. The truck then appears to drive into the barricade, knocking over protestors. Screaming and yelling are then heard while a person is seen jumping on top of the truck. It's unclear if there were any injuries."NY's Finest". Disgusting. #BlackLivesMatter #riots2020 #JusticeForGeorgeFlyod pic.twitter.

— Marco May 31, 2020 This incident further fuels the flames of negative interactions between police and the people they're sworn to protect. A lot of the protests erupting in major cities across the US are the result of people's anger boiling over after the death of unarmed black man George Floyd at the hands of police in Minneapolis. Mayor Bill de Blasio said the incident is under investigation, but emphasized that the officers may have had no other choice.

Why aren't the Democrats fighting tooth and nail and STANDING UP AND SPEAKING OUT!

New York Police are investigating New York Police? 🤔 feels legit.

Time to make arrests!!!!😝

The police is supposed to deescalate the situation. To serve and protect?

GET.OUT.OF.THE.STREET.

I want to ask a question. To the suckers, for more than 3 months they came and went, that infections, that social distance ... and here I have not heard them say ANYTHING ... NOTHING .... NOTHING OF CONTACTS BY COVID 19 ...

peace peace peace

racist whites are ok with this 😩

This is terrible. All those people I hope are ok . Go home . Some people are crying wolf now . Don’t attack a city and than blame the police for protecting it . How he did it was not right and all the violence on them is also not . It’s not about George anymore

On orders from Trump. Congrats America. You elected him. Now you get to reap what you sow! (Trump supporters are too dumb to even know what that means)

Cleaning up the streets full of domestic terrorists....nothing to see here.

Get the fuck out the way

Anger and frustration spills across the country for a fifth night..!

That's awesome!

First they weren't protestors.....these people are terrorist.

There's the same footage but from a different, up high angle where you SEE people being bowled over ontop of each other.

Incompetent noobs running the 🚗! Mind u , there are few its not all are bad cops

Good they deserve it. The movement has turned into a farce.

The Mayor and Governor will set criminals free? You need to talk to NYGovCuomo .and BilldeBlasio.

Ummm..no. I see a video of two police cars being viciously assaulted by a mob and attempting to take reasonable defensive measures ..The protests have transitioned to criminal mob rule

defundpoliceterrosim

Oppressive conduct happens everywhere and every time in this world...

CNN worried about NYPD sweeping up the trash when a damn good story would be the black on black crime in this country. Now THAT would be an eye opening story.

Why TF they standing in the middle of the street tho,in a normal day they've been arrested

Shut up CNN your network has incited this violence happening all over this country.

I haven't seen anyone defend what the cop did. But The only thing I have seen that's sickening is the defending of looters. 🙄

America the greatest country they said. Hahaha the world is laughing at you. Especially at your stupid so-caled president

NYPD are notoriously corrupt though 😂 What is their investigation going to find?

🤔🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

It doesn’t “appear” to show. It absolutely shows the police SUV driving into the crowd

That's not a truck tho, it's a f***king explorer

So no reverse on that truck huh? It had to go forward huh? The mayor says the protestors are wrong. The Mayor of New York has failed.

🤬💔🤬💔

F*** you CNN ! Finally you got targeted by protests !

This is awesome. That cop needs a raise.

HK police are too gentle

Justified

of course. these cops will have no consequences.

Stop violence between people, bring her!

APPEARS

Good for the officer.

Well, the situation could have been easily solved by driving BACKWARDS instead of forward into the protesters. The situation was NOT 'absolute impossible'. There was criminal intent to harm people. Not more. Not less.

During a peaceful protest NYPD attacked her. NYGovCuomo NYCMayor

Yes because we trusts this pigs to actually investigate their fellow murderers.

Republican states watching the far left attack and burn their own liberal cities. First they were shamimg us all we can't break quarantine now this. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

GeorgeFlyod breaking With Trump naming them thugs and allowing the army to shoot at the protesters, the blacks have no way out. Once they withdraw, they will be identified as family terrorists and imprisoned, suppressed and slaughtered. They can only insist on revolution

“Plowonf thru” ...more like bumper checked.

Savage

Police car goes VROOOOM

Shame Shame

Police in the US are animals

In Tienanmen thy cares people, you killed your mate...where is democracy now? W China. Dictatorship in facking USA You r the shame of the world

Nothing like some police brutality at a protest against police brutality... Am I right..?

investigated... like they do not know who had the vehicle and who was the team!! ppl are clever ..

Soo much to investigate

How about when black American hurt Asian? 🇺🇸

(ಡωಡ)hiahiahia

how about you cover the rest ?

This is a Chinese conspiracy. That cop who killed George Floyd is a pawn Investigate the bank accounts of the police who killed George Floyd. Review the bank accounts of the people who shot that video The vandals that join the protesters are the pawns that China rents with money

Here's a picture of the driver

America police: We dont stand with our people, we stand on their necks.

Glad they would investigate this. 👍🏼

Is it wrong to run over trash?

It’s about time🔥🔥🔥

'Appears to show' wtf

Shut up, BilldeBlasio! NYPD officer driving a police car into a crowd, and of course people now get really pissed off! ALL OVER THE USA! Now more people will protest even more against police violence & PoliceBrutality! It's NOT over yet! It's only just begun! BlackLivesMatter

Damn.... they have to do something . At least it wasn’t moving at high speed and no 1 got shot. Stop reporting incitive BS Media loves conflict and having this nation coming together for a common cause is not what they want to promote

'appears' CNN just stop

The law is abiding in its own way

I guess reverse doesn't work on those 2 police vehicles?

Collaborate in protests, but do not cooperate with corona virus protection, so do your country damage.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇹🇭🇹🇭

Good run the animals over

Theres nothing to investigate its on fucking camera

Appears? Gtfoh

All of you saying nonsense. The cop could have backed off instead of ploughing through. If the protesters too were as angry as the cops they could have destroyed the car and set it on fire. A fire for fire approach doesn't solve problems created by the police in the first place

“Appears”? Grow a fucking set CNN. It doesn’t “appears” at all. Both arsehole drivers drove into the crowd and should be arrested for attempted murder. No if’s or buts about it.

how would US media/politicians cover this if it happens in other countries: 'It is peaceful protest, protestors are fighting for human rights. police (gov) actions are suppression of freedom. We will pose lots of sanctions'

Five demands, No one less! I. Disbanding the police force II. Independent inquiry III. Retraction of riot characterization IV. Release of arrested protesters V. Ending the electoral college system

😳😳😳

NYC doesn’t stand behind their police force. The mayor sucks

PattyArquette Investigating themselves? Yeah no conflict there...

The shot from above really shows what happened- very lucky no one was seriously injured.

PattyArquette they cannot investigate one of their own.

I would have done the same thing those protesters were unrul and attacking.

Stop damaging cars shoot the vermin

PattyArquette Lemme guess. NYPD is going to find that NYPD did nothing wrong. 🙄

marcusvisionary NYPD is investigating NYPD...stupid

How does the police objectively investigate their own? We need a neutral military force to control the police and the rioters. That would open the door for healthy discussion of the big issues.

PattyArquette Appears to show? Are you f.n.high?

appears to show

北美美丽的风景线,快打,

So don't investigate the crazies but the officers doing their job? Another video also showed the crowd run into the vehicle WITH the orange barricade...

The world and the American people stand together to fight.

MSM is Trumpers !

Plow You are half the problem! 'Officers forced to move vehicles forward slowly when attacked by angry crowd' . That's the headline CNN

I show for you

FalseFlag SorosFundedRiots

That’s not protesting. It’s riot and the police acted accordingly.

Mass protest is the key.

Hey JoeBiden Time for each state to have an independent agency to investigate all police in their state. Maybe a federal version of it too for appeals and over sure. Separate from law enforcement and DOJ. Completely independent from politics and political appointments.

Must arrest cops who break the LAW !!!

That Cop needs to be Suspended from their Job. Fire him from his Job cause he tried to Kill Innocent People. Is he part of that “Bad Cops?” I bet you He is . Don’t let him get away with it .

Stop spreading this evil fakenews

to be clear... the nypd are investigating a video of a car ramming into people. is that right? am i missing anything?

Foot slipped on the clutch

What are they investigating for? They’ll place the officer on paid leave, then have him/her report back with a reprimand in their file. What’s one more when you can receive 17+ and still hold your job, pay and pension?

It’s about damn time you reported on this

That’s great. Cause more riots by mowing people over. Unbelievable

What is going on 🔥🔥🔥

Where’s the rest of the video ... “the plowing over people”?

They deserve it. Protesters are the ones who were attacking. You attack they attack. I am still not an NYPD fan!

This is what I have been saying. The police all over are proving these protesters points about PoliceBrutality. It’s maddening to watch.

Fucking assassins in uniforms.

“Appears”?

Hopefully to charge every single person with obstruction of justice....

Not appears. Shows.

Oohhhh so now I guess the BlackLivesMatter crowd will explode on anger right? 🤣

really

TWO police cars.

“Appears”? What the fuck? It’s pretty obvious what happened.

THAT isn’t helping

1) The crowd had underlying health conditions anyway. 2) The van was seized by out of town Antifa. 3) The crowd used telekinesis to propel it toward themselves to make cops look bad.

They should of investigated the cop that killed GEORGE FLOYD. He had numerous complaints for abuse of power on black men. If someone took action and did their job and didn’t let an animal lose on the street looking for prey. This wouldn’t of happened.

They need a freaking independent investigation, no one should trust these a******s to do their own investigation

Gave them a shove, no one was badly hurt. Watch the whole thing. It's not that bad. This isn't the story you should be focused on CNN..

Protest, that was a riot...

If the Americans really want to prevent this tragic rebellion from happening again, THEY NEED TO REQUIRE that Democrats, like Maxine Waters, anchors and commentators of MSM, celebrities, like Robert De Niro, no longer, publicly, instigate the violent behavior among minorities.

“Appears to show” ?

“Appears to show”? No. How about, police car violently plows through unarmed crowd protesting the murders of black citizens by said police. Do better AbolishThePolice AbolishIce SayTheirName

Appears?👁👁

No explanation for that with 0 weapons involved...aren't we taught words don't hurt? No matter what anyone yelled they can't run muh fuckers over bro!! Show us the video someone had a weapon or threatened officers (who were in a fucking vehicle 🤣) no spin can justify this

The youth are upset about racial injustice which has also highlighted income inequality. Boomers have indebted the youth for the creation of wealth for boomers only. Until boomer politicians deal with student debt, affordable healthcare, and income equality protests will continue
