Derek Chauvin, a former Minneapolis officer, who was arrested and charged with murder after kneeling on George Floyd's neck, has a history of complaints against him.
Bergh and two of his friends involved in the incident provided the following account of Bergh’s complaint to BuzzFeed News. The Minneapolis Police Department did not release information on the complaint, including details of Bergh's allegations or whether the accusations were substantiated. Tom Kelly, Chauvin’s lawyer, could not be reached for comment.On May 1, 2013, Bergh was a 17-year-old senior at South High School in Minneapolis.
The officers shouted at Bergh to “get back in the fucking car” and “put your hands in the fucking air,” he recalled. Hanson said that he thought it would be clear to the officers what had happened after he and his friends told them that they were just Nerf guns. He said that they finally released their friend “after what seemed like an eternity” and returned their Nerf guns.Bergh said his mother had witnessed the entire incident from inside the house and when she deemed it safe to come out, she asked the officers why they had acted so aggressively.
The three friends told BuzzFeed News that the officers did not physically harm them or threaten them, “aside from the inherent threat implied by aiming guns at us,” Bergh added.
