On Saturday, May 30, thousands of people descended upon Downtown Pittsburgh to protest the unjust killing of George Floyd, a Black man in Minneapolis, by a White Minneapolis police officer, Derek Chauvin. The incident occurred on May 25. Chauvin and three other officers were fired the next day, and on May 29, Chauvin was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter.
The New Pittsburgh Courier captured video of a vehicle that seemed to try to pass through the protest, but protesters abruptly stopped the vehicle from going any further. The video link is below. (WARNING: GRAPHIC LANGUAGE USED IN VIDEO)
