Washington D.C. police arrested 17 people after protests Saturday night that were part of nationwide demonstrations following the death of George Floyd.
WASHINGTON – Hundreds of protesters returned to the White House Sunday, a day after demonstrations turned violent and police used tear gas to dispel the crowds in Lafayette Park.
“We just want everyone to be safe and work together,” Tandria Mason said as she held an oversized bottle of hand sanitizer. Protesters moved closer toward confrontation with police as some members of the crowd knocked down temporary fences that lined Lafayette Park and chants of “black lives matter” grew. One protester appeared to dare approaching police as he tagged a sidewalk inside the park.“We want our voices to be heard and if he sees all of us out here and hears what we’re saying maybe he’ll finally stop and think about what’s going on,” the teacher said.
Floyd's arrest was captured in a viral video showing him lying face down on the ground while a Minneapolis police officer pressed his knee into Floyd's neck for several minutes. Floyd, who is black, later died at a hospital. The officer, Derek Chauvin, who is white, has since beenwith third-degree murder and manslaughter. Three other officers who were involved have been fired.
