GEORGE FLOYD: Chaos Erupts in Minneapolis

Protesters filled the streets of Minneapolis for a second-straight night to demand justice for George Floyd who died in police custody.

TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

  • The second night of protests was much more chaotic than the first. It will be interesting to see what happens tonight.
  • Protests were also held in other parts of the country like Los Angeles and Chicago.
  • People need to express their anger, but in a non-violent way.

Protesters filled the streets of Minneapolis for a second-straight night to demand justice for George Floyd who died in police custody.

The demonstration quickly turned into a violent riot with protesters setting fires, looting stores, and destroying cars and buildings. Protesters are demanding that the officers, seen in the disturbing video of Floyd being pinned down to the ground with a knee on his neck, be charged with murder. Even Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey wondered why no charges have been filed, but pleaded with protesters to keep the demonstration peaceful saying, “Please, Minneapolis, we cannot let tragedy beget more tragedy."

During the protests, a man was shot and killed. Police say they are investigating the shooting and have a suspect in custody. It is believed the suspect may be the owner of a pawn shop who fired on a looter. (WCCO-TV)
