The death of a black American man during his arrest by police has sparked nationwide protests in the United States. George Floyd, 46, died after being arrested by police outside a store in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
A video of Floyd’s arrest on May 24 shows a white police officer, Derek Chauvin, pressing his knee to his neck, which was lying on the ground.
Mr Chauvin, 44, has been charged with manslaughter.
The story began with a report of a counterfeit $ 20 bill to police. On the evening of May 25, a grocery store called “Cup Foods” where Mr. Floyd had bought cigarettes called police.
