Violent clashes are rumbling on across America following the death of George Floyd (Picture: AP/Getty Images) Riots have erupted in cities across America following the death of unarmed and handcuffed George Floyd at the hands of a white police officer. Chaos fell on Minneapolis, Minnesota this week after footage emerged of Mr Floyd gasping for air as Derek Chauvin pinned him to the floor and knelt on his neck. President Donald Trump has threatened to send the national guard ‘and get the job done right’ as unrest shows no signs of easing. Both peaceful protests and rioting have broken out in a number of US cities including Los Angeles, New York, Denver and Louisville. Officers were forced to run from the Minneapolis Third Police Precinct last night after a crowd broke into the building and set it ablaze. Demonstrators are also demanding justice for other African Americans who have been killed by police, including Breonna Taylor, who was shot dead by officers in March at her home in Louisville, Kentucky. {“@context”:“https:\/\/schema.org”,“@type”:“VideoObject”,“name”:“Metro.co.uk”,“duration”:“T2M4S”,“thumbnailUrl”:“https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2020\/05\/29\/06\/28960176-0-image-a-50_1590731926386.jpg”,“uploadDate”:“2020-05-29T06:59:49+0100”,“description”:“A Minneapolis police precinct is set on fire during the third consecutive night of protests following the death of George Floyd.”,“contentUrl”:“https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2020\/05\/29\/4663738921066514736\/640x360_MP4_4663738921066514736.mp4”,“height”:360,“width”:640} To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video A man chucks a mannequin onto a burning car in the car park of a Target store in Minneapolis (Picture: Reuters) Shocking footage shows George Floyd repeatedly saying he couldn’t breathe as an officer knelt on his neck (Picture: AP) Firefighters attend a blaze in St. Paul, Minnesota (Picture: AP) A protester is detained by police during a rally in New York’s Union Square (Picture: Getty Images) Rachel Perez shown with bruising around her eye after officers fired rubber bullets into crowds in Minneapolis (Picture: Reuters) Protesters gather to watch an apartment building burning near the Minneapolis Police third precinct (Picture: Reuters) As around 500 to 600 demonstrators marched through the city’s downtown streets, at least seven civilians were shot dead over the course of the night. Officers said they received reports of gunfire at around 11.30pm. Louisville Metro Police confirmed in a statement today that at least one of those victims is in a critical condition. The force said there were ‘some arrests’ but police didn’t provide a number. Live video shows protesters behind makeshift wooden barricades which appeared to be made out of picnic tables spray-painted with the words ‘You can’t kill us all’. Police in body armour and face shields held batons and lined up around Louisville City Hall, firing rubber bullets and tear gas canisters into the masses, which protesters chanted ‘No justice, no peace’ and ‘Whose streets? Our streets’. The city’s mayor Greg Greg Fischer tweeted ‘Understandably, emotions are high’ and shared a Facebook post asking for peace. He added: ‘As Breonna’s mother says let’s be peaceful as we work toward truth and justice.’ Emergency medican technician Ms Taylor, 26, was shot eight times on March 13 after Louisville narcotics detectives knocked down the front door. No drugs were found in the home. {“@context”:“https:\/\/schema.org”,“@type”:“VideoObject”,“name”:“Metro.co.uk”,“duration”:“T36S”,“thumbnailUrl”:“https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2020\/05\/29\/06\/28960022-0-image-a-47_1590731419975.jpg”,“uploadDate”:“2020-05-29T06:49:53+0100”,“description”:“‘That was a very, very bad thing that I saw’: Trump confirms that he’s taking a 'very strong look’ at George Floyd case and says that he hasn’t reached out to the family yet.”,“contentUrl”:“https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2020\/05\/29\/814368386011937730\/640x360_MP4_814368386011937730.mp4”,“height”:360,“width”:640}
