Protests and incidents spread across the United States
- On Saturday night, at least one second protester has died in the centre of the working capital. Disturbances have taken place in dozens of cities and hundreds of people have been arrested by the police in recent hours. Trump's threat to take the Army and his return orders have not calmed the mobilizations to denounce George Floyd's death.
Protests over George Floyd's death have intensified this Saturday in the British capital. Demonstrations, statements and incidents have spread throughout the country. Dozens of cities have been the scene of clashes between policemen and protesters, who have emerged with clashes. The riots have also reached the height of the White House or the Beverly Hills neighborhood in Los Angeles. The authorities have issued eviction orders in several states and cities, but citizens are not respecting them and have held demonstrations during the forbidden hours. The National Guard has taken to the streets in thirteen states, and has threatened Trump to activate the Army "very fast and fast."
At least a second death victim
Following the death last Friday of a 19-year-old demonstrator in Detroit, there has been at least one new death on Saturday. In Indianapolis, one person has been shot dead and two others have been shot, according to the Department of Security. The police have pointed out that the shooting has occurred near a demonstration, although it is not certain that it is related to the protests. According to Redfish, eight people related to the protests have died in four days.
More aggressive police
The police have arrested hundreds of people throughout the territory – over 1,500 in four days, according to Redfish. In many states, images showing images of violence against demonstrators have been disseminated throughout the morning. A number of police assaults on journalists have also been reported. One of the most prestigious has been the arrest of the CNN group of journalists, although there have also been more. The EFE agency has reported that the Police has raided its journalists in downtown Minneapolis. For her part, photographer Linda Tirado has lost sight of an eye because of a police paint bullet.
USA, Amnesty International (AI) has stated that the police are using excessive violence against protests against police violence. He has also accused the police of racist attitudes: "The police are not fulfilling their duty to respect and facilitate the right to a peaceful protest, stressing the situation and putting the lives of the protesters at risk." Ai has asked President Trump to "put aside" the "violent and exclusionary" attitude he has maintained so far.
