Minnesota Governor Tim Walz on Thursday declared a state of emergency and activated Minnesota National Guard to return order after protests over the death of George Floyd in police custody turned violent Wednesday night with fires burning and businesses looted in Minneapolis, the biggest city in the midwest state.
According to Xinhua news agency, Floyd died on Monday evening shortly after a white police officer held him down with a knee on his neck though the black man in his 40s repeatedly pleaded, “I can’t breathe,“ and “please, I can’t breathe.” The police officer’s way of handling the man is not approved by the local police department.
The National Guard Adjutant General will work with local government agencies to provide personnel, equipment, and facilities needed to respond to and recover from this emergency, according to a report from local newspaper Star Tribune.
