\"\"<\/p>\n

The FBI and authorities in Minnesota have launched investigations into the death of an African American man after an incident,\u00a0captured on video<\/a>, in which a white Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck as he lay on the ground, the Guardian is reporting.<\/p>\n

In the footage the man, later identified as\u00a0George Floyd<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>46, can be heard to shout \u201cI cannot breathe\u201d and \u201cDon\u2019t kill me!\u201d He then becomes motionless, eyes closed, face-first on the road.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, hundreds of protesters, many in face masks, lined the Minneapolis intersection where Floyd died. Some carried signs reading \u201cI can\u2019t breathe\u201d and \u201cjail killer KKKops\u201d, chanting: \u201cProsecute the police.\u201d<\/p>\n

Protesters marched through the neighborhood to a city police precinct, where windows were damaged and squad cars sprayed with graffiti. Police in riot gear fired teargas and deployed stun grenades at demonstrators.<\/p>\n
