Thousands of protesters march down Hiawatha Ave in Minneapolis to protest the police killing of George Floyd by the Minneapolis police on May 26, 2020.
The Minneapolis Police Department fired four police officers who arrested Floyd.
George Floyd died Monday after his arrest outside Cup Foods, a Minneapolis restaurant that reported a customer who paid for a meal with a counterfeit $20 bill.
Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo fired Officer Derek Chauvin and three other officers who were present.
“Friends, Please wear your masks and join us if you can in demanding justice for the Black man who was unjustly killed by Minneapolis Police yesterday in broad daylight,” she wrote.
