\n

Right Now<\/p>\n

The State Capitol in Denver was put on lockdown after gunfire near a peaceful demonstration, one of several protests across the country. At least 30 people were arrested in Manhattan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

Minnesota\u2019s governor activated the National Guard after \u2018arson, rioting, looting.\u2019<\/h2>\n

Gov. Tim Walz activated the Minnesota National Guard on Thursday afternoon before a third night of escalating protests about the killing of George Floyd<\/a>, who was filmed struggling to breathe this week as a Minneapolis police officer pressed his knee against the man\u2019s neck<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The governor said he supported peaceful demonstrations but that destruction on Wednesday night into Thursday morning warranted further action to keep the peace. The police have been firing tear gas and rubber bullets as people set buildings on fire and looted stores.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Protests continued to spread across the country on Thursday night, including in New York, Denver, Albuquerque and Portland, Ore., one day after rallies in Los Angeles and Memphis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In St. Paul, the Minnesota capital, police officers in riot gear skirmished with protesters and several businesses were vandalized, according to photographs posted on Twitter and local media. Smoke could be seen billowing from a NAPA auto parts store, and the windows of a Goodwill store were broken. \u201cThe situation here in St. Paul remains dynamic,\u201d a police spokesman, Steve Linders, said in an email.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Some protesters in Minneapolis threw rocks at police officers, who used tear gas to try to repel their advance. A car was set on fire outside of a Target store that had been looted the day before.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cUnfortunately, some individuals have engaged in unlawful and dangerous activity, including arson, rioting, looting, and damaging public and private property,\u201d Mr. Walz wrote in his proclamation. \u201cThese activities threaten the safety of lawful demonstrators and other Minnesotans, and both first responders and demonstrators have already been injured.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He also declared a state of emergency in Minneapolis, St. Paul and surrounding communities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Floyd, 46, died on Monday after being handcuffed and pinned to the ground by a white police officer who pressed his knee on Mr. Floyd\u2019s neck for about eight minutes. A video of the arrest, in which Mr. Floyd is heard pleading \u201cI can\u2019t breathe,\u201d spread widely online.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThey executed my brother in broad daylight,\u201d Philonise Floyd told CNN on Thursday morning, breaking down in tears. \u201cI am just tired of seeing black people dying.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

At a news conference on Thursday afternoon, Mayor Jacob Frey said the destructive protests were a reflection of the black community\u2019s anger over 400 years of inequality.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cWhat we\u2019ve seen over the last two days and the emotion-ridden conflict over the last night is the result of so much built up anger and sadness,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Prosecutors said they haven\u2019t decided whether to charge the officers involved.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Prosecutors said on Thursday night that they had not yet decided whether to charge any of the four Minneapolis police officers, including the one who knelt on George Floyd\u2019s neck<\/a> shortly before he died.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

State and federal prosecutors are running simultaneous investigations into Mr. Floyd\u2019s death after a video showed Derek Chauvin, a white police officer, pressing his knee on the neck of Mr. Floyd, who is black, until Mr. Floyd\u2019s body became limp. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Chauvin and three other officers at the scene, who did nothing to stop Mr. Chauvin, were fired on Tuesday, and Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis has called for Mr. Chauvin to be arrested and charged. The Minneapolis Police Department has identified the other officers as Thomas Lane, Tou Thao and J. Alexander Kueng.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to investigate it as expeditiously, as thoroughly and completely as justice demands,\u201d Mike Freeman, the district attorney in Hennepin County, said at a news conference. \u201cSometimes that takes a little time, and we ask people to be patient.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Freeman said his office had been flooded with as many as 1,000 calls daily from people who want him to bring charges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u2018We Have to Do This Right,\u2019 Says Prosecutor in George Floyd Case<\/h2>\n

Mike Freeman, the county attorney in Minneapolis, urged patience as his office investigates Mr. Floyd\u2019s death while in police custody. State and federal officials are also conducting inquiries.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/dt>\n
\n

Our office has been flooded with calls. Many as 1,000 a day, as well as email and social media from people in this jurisdiction, in this state, and throughout the country. The main question is, \u201dWhat are you going to do about the murder of George Floyd?\u201d We are going to investigate it as expeditiously, as thoroughly and completely, as justice demands. Sometimes that takes a little time and we ask people to be patient. We have to do this right, and that\u2019s what we\u2019ll do. I will say this: that that video is graphic and horrific and terrible and no person should do that. But my job in the end is to prove that he violated a criminal statute. And there is other evidence that does not support a criminal charge. We need to wade through all of that evidence to come through with meaningful determination and we are doing that to the best of our ability. We have to do this right. We have to prove it in a court of law. And I will just point to you the comparison to what happened in Baltimore in the Gray case. It was a rush to charge. It was a rush to justice. And all of those people were found not guilty. I will not rush to justice. I\u2019m going to do this right. And those folks who know me in the African community know I will do my very level best. But I will not rush justice because justice cannot be rushed.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThat video is graphic and horrific and terrible, and no person should do that,\u201d Mr. Freeman said of the Minneapolis officer\u2019s actions. \u201cBut my job, in the end, is to prove that he violated a criminal evidence, and there is other evidence that does not support a criminal charge.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Freeman did not elaborate on any additional evidence. The police had detained Mr. Floyd, a resident of St. Louis Park, Minn., who recently worked as a bouncer<\/a> at a restaurant, after someone called the police and accused a man of trying to use a counterfeit $20 bill at a grocery store.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Erica MacDonald, the U.S. attorney in Minnesota, pleaded for peace and said lawyers in her office are working quickly to determine whether they will bring charges against Mr. Chauvin for violating federal laws, including civil rights laws. Ms. MacDonald said she had been in touch with Attorney General William P. Barr about the case.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Ms. MacDonald also apologized, cryptically, after a long delay before the start of the news conference, saying she had believed there would be \u201canother development\u201d before it began. She declined to elaborate on that statement but said further announcements were to come.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll have it timed right,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\n

The State Capitol in Denver was put on lockdown after someone fired a gun near a peaceful demonstration over the death of Mr. Floyd in Minneapolis, one of many protests in cities across the country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Leslie Herod, a state representative in Colorado, said that she heard several shots near the statehouse, and that she and other demonstrators scattered, believing that the shots had been fired into the crowd. She said it did not appear as if anyone had been injured.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThis was a completely peaceful rally and someone shot into the crowd and at folks who were protesting in support of the black community and against police brutality,\u201d Ms. Herod said. She added in a text: \u201cThis emphasizes how much more we have to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Denver Police Department said that there were no injuries reported, and that officers had not immediately determined a motive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A video taken at the protest also appeared to show the driver of a black sport-utility vehicle driving through a crowd of protesters who had blocked traffic near the statehouse. As a protester jumps off the car, the driver, blaring the horn, veers around and speeds into the protester and knocks him over. It was unclear whether he was injured.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Anabel Escobar, the demonstrator who recorded the video of the vehicle, said she was shaken by what had happened. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On Wednesday night, there were protests in Memphis<\/a> and Los Angeles<\/a>, where law enforcement officials faced off with people blocking the 101 Freeway downtown.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The Justice Department promised a thorough investigation of Mr. Floyd\u2019s death.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Justice Department said on Thursday that it would investigate the officers involved in Mr. Floyd\u2019s death and determine whether they should face federal criminal charges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The investigation will be led by the U.S. attorney in Minnesota, Erica MacDonald, and by F.B.I. agents in Minneapolis. Attorney General William P. Barr and the head of the Justice Department\u2019s civil rights division, Eric Dreiband, are closely monitoring their inquiry, a Justice Department spokeswoman said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThe Department of Justice has made the investigation a top priority and has assigned experienced prosecutors and F.B.I. criminal investigators to the matter,\u201d the department said in a statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The department noted that is a violation of federal law for an officer acting in an official capacity to deprive another person of his or her constitutional rights, including the right to be protected from cruel and unusual punishment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

President Trump has condemned the actions by the officers caught on video and urged the department to expedite the investigation, but he has not reached out to Mr. Floyd\u2019s family. During a news conference on Thursday, Mr. Trump declined to say whether the officers should be prosecuted, but he called the video \u201cshocking.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Video Shows Arrested Man Telling Police He Can\u2019t Breathe<\/h2>\n

A bystander\u2019s video in Minneapolis shows a police officer with his knee on a man\u2019s neck during an arrest. The man died a \u201cshort time\u201d later, the police said.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Justice Department has declined to charge police officers in other high-profile cases in which a black person has died in their custody.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In July, after a five-year investigation, the department said it would not bring federal civil rights charges<\/a> against Daniel Pantaleo, the Staten Island police officer who killed Eric Garner by wrapping his arm around his neck. The killing was caught on video and widely circulated online.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The decision bitterly divided the Justice Department\u2019s civil rights division lawyers, who wanted to charge Mr. Pantaleo, and prosecutors in Brooklyn, who believed they could not win the case at trial.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Barr ultimately sided with the Brooklyn prosecutors, who had argued that they did not have enough evidence to prove that Mr. Panataleo committed a federal civil rights violation because they could not prove that he had made a clear decision to use a chokehold, which the New York Police Department had banned, when he killed Mr. Garner. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Like Mr. Floyd, Mr. Garner also gasped \u201cI can\u2019t breathe\u201d just before he died. <\/p>\n

Lawmakers and employees at the State Capitol in St. Paul, Minn., were told to evacuate the building as a precaution on Thursday afternoon, after looting continued at nearby stores.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

St. Paul police officers encountered large groups of people stealing merchandise from a Target store and other businesses in the city\u2019s Midway neighborhood, said St. Paul Police Department spokesman Steve Linder. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Some threw rocks, liquor bottles and bricks at the responding officers, while another group of people rushed into a Foot Locker, he said, noting that a fight broke out in the parking lot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cOur officers have been busy trying to keep things calm and de-escalate when possible, and protect people and property,\u201d Mr. Linder said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As crowds of protesters gathered in increasing numbers a few blocks away from the Capitol, the secretary of the Senate ordered staff members and legislators to leave the building at about 1:30 p.m. local time, according to staff members. About an hour later, the Capitol Security Department of Public Safety ordered all Capitol staff and employees to evacuate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

George Floyd Protests Escalate in Minneapolis<\/h2>\n

Protests over the death of George Floyd, an African-American man who died in police custody, have intensified in Minneapolis. Some have turned violent, with the police firing tear gas and rubber bullets and people setting buildings on fire.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n

\n

Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee asked the Justice Department on Thursday to investigate Mr. Floyd\u2019s death along with the recent killings of two other black people: Ahmaud Arbery<\/a>, who was shot after being pursued by white men near Brunswick, Ga.; and Breonna Taylor<\/a>, who was killed by police officers in Louisville, Ky., during a \u201cno-knock\u201d raid of her apartment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The committee members asked the department to open so-called pattern and practice investigations into potential police misconduct in all three cases. Federal law prohibits law enforcement officers from engaging in a pattern or practice of conduct that deprives people of their constitutional rights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

They also asked that the department investigate the local prosecutors who were involved in Mr. Arbery\u2019s case. The two armed men who chased Mr. Arbery had connections to local law enforcement and were not arrested for 74 days, until after a video of the shooting was widely circulated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Arbery\u2019s death and the subsequent local investigation \u201care reminiscent of early 20th century lynchings in the Jim Crow South,\u201d the committee members wrote.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Jerry Nadler, the chair of the committee, said it is considering legislation to address racial profiling and the excessive use of force by police officers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He noted that the Justice Department has uncovered rampant police abuses in Ferguson, Mo., Baltimore, Cleveland and Chicago, which led the police departments in those cities to negotiate consent decrees with the federal government.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The police said they were investigating a fatal shooting near a looted pawnshop<\/a> in the area where the protests occurred.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In a news conference early Thursday morning, a Minneapolis Police Department spokesman, John Elder, said two officers responded to a call near the Cadillac Pawn & Jewelry shop, where they found the victim in grave condition on the sidewalk. He was taken to a hospital, where he died. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Elder declined to confirm media reports that the victim was involved in looting, or whether the store owner was the shooter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThat is one of the theories we\u2019re looking into,\u201d he said, noting that the crime is still under investigation. \u201cWe want to make sure that we do in fact have all of the facts moving forward. We don\u2019t want to cast aspersions on somebody if in fact they weren\u2019t doing anything wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A suspect was taken into custody, Mr. Elder said, but he declined to provide the suspect\u2019s identity, citing investigative protocol. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The violence came at the end of what had been a tense period.<\/p>\n

Protesters began gathering Wednesday afternoon outside the Third Precinct headquarters, but by early evening, officers were trying to disperse the crowds using flash-bang grenades and tear gas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Some residents of the area said Thursday that they believed people from outside the city had been responsible for a large portion of the fires and looting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThis is just painful,\u201d said Cynthia Montana, 57. \u201cI don\u2019t think the people who did the looting and all this destruction are the same as the peaceful protesters that have been at Cup Foods,\u201d where Mr. Floyd was arrested on Monday. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cI\u2019m a protester,\u201d Ms. Montana said. \u201cIt was so peaceful over there.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said the nearby neighborhood is diverse, but in the broader Twin Cities community, there are huge racial disparities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s like layer and layer and layer of gunpowder building over a long time,\u201d she said, \u201cand when you become an adult, it\u2019s this stick of dynamite.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mr. Floyd\u2019s death \u2014 and the recent killing of Ahmaud Arbery<\/a>, a 25-year-old African-American man who was chased and fatally shot by two white men in Georgia \u2014 has prompted comparisons to other killings of black Americans, including Eric Garner<\/a> and Michael Brown<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The episode was seen as part of a broader pattern of devastating encounters between African-Americans and law enforcement denounced by civil rights leaders. It has laid bare tensions between members of the local community and the 800-plus police force in Minneapolis, a divide mirrored in other communities across the country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Mr. Floyd\u2019s sister, Bridgett Floyd, called for justice on NBC\u2019s \u201cToday\u201d show.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like for those officers to be charged with murder because that\u2019s exactly what they did,\u201d Ms. Floyd said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Other members of the Floyd family, appearing on \u201cThis Morning\u201d on CBS<\/a>, said that protests were not enough.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want the protests to be for just show,\u201d said Tera Brown, Mr. Floyd\u2019s cousin, who appeared with two of Mr. Floyd\u2019s brothers. \u201cI want to see action.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThis was clearly murder,\u201d she added. \u201cWe want to see them arrested; we want to see them charged; we want to see them convicted for what they did.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Stephen Jackson, the former N.B.A. player and now podcast host, told \u201cThe Today Show\u201d<\/a> on Thursday that the death of Mr. Floyd, a longtime friend, \u201cdestroyed\u201d him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI jumped up, screamed, scared my daughter and almost broke my hand punching stuff because I was so mad,\u201d Mr. Jackson said, describing his reaction when he learned the news.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Jackson told \u201cThe Breakfast Club\u201d podcast that he grew up with Mr. Floyd in the Houston area. He joked that they looked so much alike that they could have the same father, so would refer to each other as \u201cTwin.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cNeighborhoods, they all get beefing,\u201d Mr. Jackson said. \u201cBut you always have one guy that can go to all the neighborhoods and everybody will rock with him. Floyd was that guy.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In a report on Mr. Floyd\u2019s arrest, the Minneapolis police said they had been investigating an accusation of someone trying to pass a fake $20 bill on Monday in the southern part of the city when they confronted a man who was sitting on a blue car and was later identified as Mr. Floyd.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cHe was ordered to step from his car,\u201d the Police Department said in a statement on Monday. \u201cAfter he got out, he physically resisted officers. Officers were able to get the suspect into handcuffs and noted he appeared to be suffering medical distress.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Video footage from nearby security cameras and bystanders did not show any attempt by Mr. Floyd to resist officers. Instead, it showed him begging for his life as he lay handcuffed on the ground, one officer grinding a knee into his neck while three others stood by.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

When asked about the Floyd case at his daily coronavirus news briefing on Thursday, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York, who previously served as the state\u2019s attorney general, said that he believes prosecutors could bring a criminal case against the police officer who restrained Mr. Lloyd.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI don\u2019t prejudge a case. Maybe there are facts that I don\u2019t know. But, I\u2019ll tell you, if I was a prosecutor, I would be looking at that case from the first moment. Because I think there is a criminal case there,\u201d Mr. Cuomo said. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI think the situation was so disturbing and ugly, and frightening. It was just frightening that a law enforcement officer anywhere in this country could act that way,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Cuomo brought up the case of Mr. Garner, whose death at the hands of a New York City police officer in 2014 galvanized the Black Lives Matter movement. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cSometimes you say you rationalize in your own mind, \u2018Well this is terrible, but we\u2019ll learn from it.\u2019 How many times do we have to learn the same lesson?\u201d he said. \u201cWe went through it in New York. We had the Garner case in New York. How many times do you have to learn the same lesson?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Minneapolis police have received many excessive force complaints.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Excessive force complaints against Minneapolis officers have become commonplace, especially by African-American residents. One of the officers involved in Mr. Floyd\u2019s death, OfficerMr. Chauvin<\/a>, 44, had several complaints<\/a> filed against him, three of which led to reprimands for his language and tone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mr. Chauvin shot a man who was trying to grab an officer\u2019s gun in 2008, according to The Pioneer Press<\/a>. He was also present at two other shootings, one of them fatal, but it was unclear if he fired his weapon in those cases, according to Communities United Against Police Brutality, a local organization advocating police reform.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

African-Americans account for about 20 percent of the city\u2019s population, but they are more likely to be pulled over, arrested and have force used against them than white residents, Police Department data shows. And black people accounted for more than 60 percent of the victims in Minneapolis police shootings from late 2009 through May 2019, data shows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The tension between the community and the 800-plus-officer force has unfolded in a predominantly white and progressive metropolis, where the white mayor openly discusses systemic racism, the police chief is a black man who embraces a community-oriented approach and residents elected two black transgender people<\/a> to a City Council that has taken aggressive action to curb racial segregation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Yet there is a deep rift between the city\u2019s police force \u2014 which also is predominantly white \u2014 and the community, one that seems to grow larger with each killing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
