George Floyd, a 46-year-old security guard, died on May 25 in Minneapolis after former police officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on the back of his neck while he was handcuffed, rendering him unable to breathe in a horrifying incident that was caught on camera.
In the incident, arresting officers said Floyd matched the description of a forgery suspect and subsequently resisted them when they took him into custody. In an accompanying clip, Chauvin was seen pinning his knee into the back of Floyd’s neck as Floyd pleaded with him to relent.
‘Please, please, please, I can’t breathe … please, man … my stomach hurts, my neck hurts, everything hurts … I can’t breathe,’ said Floyd, who later died in police custody.
All four of the officers were fired from the police department and face charges in connection with Floyd’s death: Chavin is charged with murder and manslaughter, while his colleagues Tou Thao, Thomas Lane and J. Alexander Kueng face charges of aiding and abetting murder and manslaughter.
