Summary

Description

In Minneapolis on May 25, 2020, felon George Floyd was stopped by police after a criminal complaint about him passing a counterfeit bill. After resisting arrest and throwing himself to the ground after refusing to get into the squad car, police officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on Floyd's neck to restrain him. After almost 9 minutes, he died.

Nationwide unrest followed, including riots in Chicago that involved BLM and Antifa. 700 people were arrested. On May 31, bridges over the north branch of the Chicago River were raised to stifle traffic going in or out of the downtown area.
