New York City police officers were seen clashing with demonstrators in another night of mass gatherings Thursday in a city that has seen some of the worst violence since George Floyd protests began more than a week ago. But it was a clash across the state, in Buffalo, that was attracting attention on social media.
, whose death while in police custody last month has ignited a firestorm of criticism of law enforcement agencies over police brutality.
Thousands remained in the streets after the city's 8 p.m. curfew took effect Thursday, as well as large numbers of police officers. In the Bronx, officers were seen clashing and aggressively charging toward demonstrators in an apparent attempt to keep crowd control. Other videos appeared to show the NYPD arresting curfew violators en masse, threatening protesters with jail and wielding batons at them.
In the St. Louis area, hundreds gathered to call for criminal justice reforms. The city has seen a fair share of violence in recent days, as four police officers have been shot and a retired police captain killed while trying to protect a pawn shop from looters this week. On Thursday, thousands in Southern California and Washington, D.C., held vigils in honor of Floyd, similar to events in other parts of the country.
