A Virginia school district has launched an investigation into an image posted on social media of former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on George Floyd’s neck that had been edited to celebrate a local high school football team’s recent win.
Roanoke County Public Schools Superintendent Ken Nicely condemned the image in a statement Monday. According to The New York Times, the image showed the Cave Spring High School logo on Chauvin’s face, while the Hidden Valley High School logo was edited onto Floyd’s face.
The photo was initially posted on social media by a Cave Spring football player after the team’s win against Hidden Valley on Friday, and was subsequently shared by a “handful of other students,” Nicely told the Times.
