Police in Huntington Beach, California, asked hundreds of demonstrators protesting George Floyd's death to leave. A month ago in the same city, a protest against an order to close all beaches to prevent the spread of Covid-19 was left mostly alone.
In Huntington Beach, California, on Sunday, hundreds demonstrated over the death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old unarmed black man who died at the hands of police in Minneapolis. Protesters held signs that read"End Racism" and"Black Lives Matter," according to CNN affiliate KTLA. Police deemed the gathering an unlawful assembly, and asked the hundreds of protesters to disperse, police officials said in a statement.
Large protests following California governor's order closing beachesWhile the beach was technically closed, officers did not appear to be enforcing the governor's new closure order, CNN reported.Out of sight from protesters, riot patrol officers on horseback staged under the Huntington Beach Pier, with one officer telling CNN they were there"just in case.
