They added that Floyd physically resisted the police and seemed to be “suffering medical distress,” which is why they had called for an ambulance. Officers handcuffed Floyd, who police said “appeared to be suffering medical distress.” Video from bystanders shows Floyd handcuffed and Chauvin with his knee pressed against the neck of the 46-year-old. Protesters in the streets want one thing: the arrest and prosecution of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, whose knee was pressed into Floyd's neck for several minutes before he died. Video of the incident does not show how the confrontation started, but a white officer can be seen with his knee on Mr Floyd's neck, pinning him down. “This abusive, excessive and inhumane use of force cost the life of a man who was being detained by the police for questioning about a non-violent charge.” Floyd’s cause and manner of death remains pending and is being investigated by local, state and federal law enforcement, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office said in a statement. Another told the officers that Floyd was "not even resisting arrest right now". At 8:14 p.m., however, the complaint says Floyd stiffened up, fell to the ground and told the officers he was claustrophobic. Early on May 26, the Minneapolis Police Department issued a statement that said nothing about Chauvin kneeling on Floyd's neck: "After Floyd got out of his car, he physically resisted officers. This officer failed in the most basic, human sense.” The black community is far too familiar with the police brutality that led to Floyd’s death; there is no shortage of stories about law enforcement killing black people who are often unarmed. Those who were watching the incident unfold can be heard begging police to move off Floyd. Floyd "resisted being handcuffed," according to the complaint, but once he was in cuffs he "became compliant" as Lane sat him on the ground and asked for his name, identification and told him why he was being arrested. A verification code has been emailed to The killing of George Floyd, 46, of St. Louis Park — who repeatedly told a Minneapolis police officer he couldn’t breathe as the officer knelt on his neck on May 25, 2020 — sparked days of unrest in Minneapolis and St. Paul and mass protests across the globe over the treatment of Black people by police. In the footage, an officer pins Floyd’s neck to the ground as Floyd is begging, “Please, I can’t breathe” — a moment that closely resembles the pleas of , a black man who died from an officer’s chokehold in 2014. Bystanders repeatedly yelled that Floyd was "not responsive right now" and urged the officers to check his pulse. “What I can say with certainty, based on what I saw, is that … the officer who had his knee on the neck of George Floyd should be charged,” Frey Wednesday.

Thousands of demonstrators took to the streets of New York City on Monday, marking the second consecutive day of protests over the death of George Floyd, a black Minnesota man who died in police custody on Memorial Day. The protesters, who gathered in various parts of the city, including Times Square and outside the New York Police Department headquarters, were demanding justice for Floyd and condemning police brutality.

The protests, which were largely peaceful, were a continuation of the demonstrations that started on Thursday night in cities across the country, including Los Angeles, Denver, and Minneapolis, where Floyd was killed. In New York City, protesters chanted slogans such as "Black Lives Matter" and "I Can't Breathe," referencing the final words spoken by Floyd as he was pinned down by a police officer's knee on his neck.

The protesters also invoked the names of other black people who died at the hands of police, including Eric Garner, who was killed by a New York City police officer in 2014, and Breonna Taylor, who was shot and killed by police in Louisville, Kentucky, in March.

Tamika Palmer, the mother of Breonna Taylor, released a statement on Friday, urging protesters to remain peaceful and non-violent. "My daughter was an emergency medical technician who devoted her life to helping others," Palmer said. "The last thing she'd want right now is any more violence."

Despite Palmer's plea, some of the protests turned violent, with reports of clashes between police and demonstrators in Columbus, Ohio, and other cities. In New York City, police officers in riot gear were deployed to maintain order, and several arrests were made.

The protests over Floyd's death have sparked a national conversation about police brutality and racism, with many calling for reforms in law enforcement and the justice system. In Minneapolis, the officer who killed Floyd, Derek Chauvin, has been charged with murder, and three other officers who were involved in the incident have been fired.

As the protests continue, many are hoping that they will lead to meaningful change and a reduction in police violence against black and minority communities. "We will not stop until we see justice for George Floyd and for all the others who have been killed by police," said one protester in New York City. "We will not stop until we see real change."
**Thousands Take to the Streets of New York City in Second Day of Protests Over George Floyd's Death**

New York, NY - Thousands of protesters gathered in New York City for a second day on Monday, demanding justice and an end to police brutality following the death of George Floyd, a black Minnesota man who died in police custody on Memorial Day.

The protests, which began on Sunday, continued to grow in size and intensity, with demonstrators marching through the streets of Manhattan, chanting slogans and holding signs that read "Black Lives Matter" and "Justice for George Floyd." The protesters also invoked the names of other black people who have died at the hands of police, including Eric Garner, Amadou Diallo, and Breonna Taylor.

The demonstrations were largely peaceful, but there were reports of clashes between protesters and police at times. Police in riot gear were deployed to the scene, and some protesters were arrested for allegedly violating curfew and disregarding police orders.

"We are here to stand in solidarity with the people of Minneapolis and with the Floyd family," said one protester, who identified herself only as Sarah. "We demand justice for George Floyd and for all the others who have been murdered by the police."

The protests in New York City were part of a nationwide wave of demonstrations that have taken place in cities including Los Angeles, Denver, and Memphis. The demonstrations have been sparked by outrage over the death of George Floyd, who was handcuffed and pinned down by a police officer's knee on his neck for several minutes, despite his pleas for help.

The incident, which was caught on video, has sparked widespread condemnation and calls for police reform. The four police officers involved in the incident have been fired, and one of them, Derek Chauvin, has been charged with murder.

In a statement, Tamika Palmer, the mother of Breonna Taylor, who was killed by police in Louisville, Kentucky, in March, called for calm and nonviolence. "The last thing she'd want right now is any more violence," Palmer said.

The protests in New York City are expected to continue throughout the week, with organizers calling for a series of rallies and marches. The city's mayor, Bill de Blasio, has promised to listen to the concerns of the protesters and to work to address the issue of police brutality.

As the protests continue, demonstrators are demanding greater accountability and transparency from the police department, as well as an end to systemic racism and inequality.

"We will not be silenced," said another protester, who identified himself as Marcus. "We will not be ignored. We will continue to demand justice until we see real change."
