After George Floyd's death, hundreds packed the streets of Minneapolis, many gathering at the spot where he was pinned to the ground by police shortly before he died. Demonstrators chanted 'I can't breathe,' which were some of the last words he uttered.

Floyd was arrested Monday evening after officers responded to a call about an alleged forgery in progress. Video from bystanders shows Floyd handcuffed and pinned to the ground and one police officer's knee pressing against his neck. Floyd pleaded he was in pain and couldn't breathe. Shortly after, he died at a nearby hospital. Four police officers involved in the incident were fired Tuesday, Minneapolis police said. State and federal authorities are now investigating the case.

— Omar Jimenez May 27, 2020 CNN's team reported some demonstrators wheeled a shopping cart full of rocks just outside the precinct and dumped it on the ground for people to throw. A police cruiser's back window was shattered when someone threw something at it, according to CNN's observations.
