May 2020. Racist Police in the USA

May 2020. Hundreds of people gathered in Minneapolis on Tuesday night to decry the in-custody death of George Floyd, which led to the firing of four officers. Emotion and tension ran high as demonstrations became unruly, with windows damaged, graffiti sprayed and a police car vandalized. Officers in riot gear confronted protesters and fired tear gas. One person was shot in a non-life-threatening incident, said police spokesman John Elder. A suspect fled the scene. It wasn’t clear if the violence was related to the protests. The shooting happened inside a building near the site where Floyd was detained a day earlier. Floyd was pinned to the ground by an officer who put his knee on Floyd’s neck for about eight minutes in an incident that was captured on video. “Please, please, please, I can’t breathe,” Floyd, who was black, begged the white officer. “My stomach hurts,” he said. “My neck hurts. Please, please. I can’t breathe.”
