We have reporters standing by in following you the major cities will go to the mill i but 1st lets take a look at whats been happening across the country the mass of Los Angeles AtlantaDenver Portland and announce nighttime curfew is in an effort to prevent more violence its a move that was announced by minneapolis on friday where the protests 1st started in that city shops were looted and cars and buildings set on fire. In los angeles a Police Cruiser was torched other demonstrations have been held in miami and chicago. And scuffles have broken out between police and protesters in new york where demonstrations are continuing into the night and earlier a police car was set on fire the day before thousands of people demonstrated outside the City Supreme Court on the Brooklyn Bridge and at the Barclays Center arena. But President Donald Trump has offered to send in the National Military to minneapolis and pledged to put an end to what he called mobile violence. But his comments havent stopped people from gathering in large numbers at his front door this is the scene in front of the white house an hour ago with police set up barricades in an attempt to stop protest from advancing. In minnesota towards floyd died the governor says hes fully mobilizing the National Guard for the 1st time in the States History but ones he still doesnt have enough troops john hendren joins us live now from minneapolis where a curfew has just come into effect john so tell us whats happening in effect whats happening on the streets. Well thats right the curfew just went into effect here and as you can see hundreds of people thousands of people in fact are violating that curfew as they did last night so this is a test not only of the curfew itself which failed pretty badly last night but its also a test of the governors new plan which is to bring in a 1000 new National Guard troops because after all this is really a battle for territory these protesters are more organized than a lot of people think that corner over there last night was occupied by police and fittingly so because the 5th Police Precinct is right to the left there they have been taking over territory held by police now the 3rd precinct which is where the officers came from who held down mr floyd george floyd. That was taken over on thursday night burned down the officers are all fled so its a in a sense its a battle for turf last night there was a standoff in this very spot with protesters here police over there well you can see who holds that territory right now it is the demonstrators so we will see later whether those National Guard troops actually contribute what theyve been doing so far is just surrounding the area and allowing fire trucks to come in and out but that the protesters had so solidly held that territory here that this fire trucks could not go in to most of those fires it was just after the protesters left that most of that happened so this is a bit of a battle for toure fear meanwhile the governor is calling out on the demonstrators to calm down to stop the violence but the problem is that what they really want is charges murder charges against all 4 of the Police Officers involved one of those officers has been charged with murders 3 have not and so that is what they want and they say they will stay out here until that happens and weve had occupations from the attorney general the president that agitates and activists a coming in from outside of minneapolis to agitate the situation there what are you hearing about that john. Well its true that a large number of those people who were arrested here were from out of town by this protest has drawn a lot of people and when i asked someone about that just a few minutes ago her response was that the governor has no problem calling in National Guard troops from out of town so what is the objection to that i think the answer to that is really that this is a movement that has drawn people into this city and that its not necessarily you know professional agitators who come here we dont know if there are any of those here but there certainly are organizers and you can see theres a platform back there speakers peak at that platform i mean there is a. Sensitive organisation theres somebody whos determining where those protesters are going from you know throughout the course of the night. Well see by the end of the night who ends up controlling the city but i would say that if you were to raid it over the past few nights it has been dominated by the protesters and even the governor agreed he said he was overwhelmed john weve been talking to reporters right across the country throughout the evening and throughout the night you know many of them echoing the same thing a powerful sense of anger a probable sense of frustration youve been out and about talking to people there whats the underlying feeling in minneapolis which is where of course all of this all started. This is the feeling is that theres a past that frustration because these events cheap happening you have a vents Trayvon Martin in florida you know Michael Brown in ferguson is very you had advance in new york chicago l. A. And thats why those cities are also rising up right now theres this sense that theres an impunity with which white Police Officers often treat africanamerican young men and. The message here is that they want to stop that message hasnt really been heard the growth of the group black lives matter if it happened because of this that group is spread across the country but we keep seeing these incidents what they want is a kind of systematic change in who you talk to depends on what answer you get a lot of people say they just want new rules for the police they want you laws that make these acts harder to carry out but i talked to a young woman just a little bit ago who said nothing short of a revolution will stop this and she says theyre going to keep fighting for them all right so join hands on that live for us in minneapolis john thank you lets cross over now to new york and talk together bill Elizondo Gabe weve been talking to you throughout the night it seems the way you are things seem pretty calm behind you but elsewhere across the city. Things are kicking off. Yeah thats right i mean let me explain whats been going on in new york you dont have one protest in new york city you have several of them and then theyre then breaking off into smaller groups quite frankly we just simply cant keep up with all of them we marched or war with them for about 30 to 40 blocks. From near times square all the way down to central park to times square to near the Brooklyn Bridge where with them for the last several hours as you saw then they dispersed now theres a group thats Near Union Square area of new york city but there are some tense standoff and some isolated reports of clashes that are happening with that group of protesters another group that were hearing about in brooklyn as well but its its a complicated and very unusual scene in a way because unlike other protests where its been one large group that weve seen here its different groups and theyre just breaking off and pretty much going wherever they want to go and as you can see where im at now its very surreal because once the protesters come through theyve moved. Onto a different area and most of the police leave as well and so you have in literally empty streets in Lower Manhattan where im at right now why are they empty because were also in the middle of a pandemic right now and new york city is still the epicenter of it and so thats complicating the whole sort of sorts of issues as well or most of the protesters have told us is they said we have a pandemic but we also need justice and thats what were going on the streets and dave youve been out and about talking to many of the protesters throughout the course of the day when weve been talking to other reporters there saying look across many of the cities theres a palpable sense of anger want to what are people telling you the whats the underlying feeling in the big apple. Yeah theres anger of course but its a different kind of anger something i havent seen either protests. That ive covered here or elsewhere this is really really bad and these are young people mostly i mean i spoke to a 16 year old a 22 year old. A white woman in africa a young africanamerican gal and they both say they are very angry but its different its a different kind of anger right now am i right or what i mean to say and and thats and thats what youre pretty much hearing and youre also hearing from them that that video of george floyd handcuffed on the ground with the officer with his knee on his neck for nearly 9 minutes or that has really struck a nerve here and its not going away this isnt something a video come out protests for night and its over that has really really struck a nerve here a lot and thats why youre seeing so many people here on the streets and really unprecedented protests like we havent seen before in new york for years if not longer gay but just a final thought from you we see new york as one of the hot spots in terms of the coronavirus pandemic across the United States so whats been the official response than from the man the governor what have they been saying. Yeah both the mayor bill de blasio and the Governor Andrew Cuomo have both said they are standing with the protesters that they want justice just as much as anyone else that they were just as shocked and outraged by the death of george florida in minneapolis so theyre all saying the right things but theyre also telling protesters on the streets here in new york please keep peaceful please do not do damage to things and also reminding them listen were in the middle of a pandemic here but did thats really falling on deaf ears because everyone were talking to theyre talking about one thing and thats not the virus thats justice that they want and so theyre in no mood the protesters to hear from politicians at this juncture and really quite frankly while most of the protesters Wearing Masks like this i have been to when im near people which im not right now. Theyre saying theyre Wearing Masks but theyre saying were not going to stay in our houses because of this lets remember new york city is still very much the epicenter of copan 1000 in the u. S. And new york city technically is still a city thats shut down you just wont know it by these protests because they say it doesnt matter anymore we have to take to the streets all right gabrielle is on the line for us reporting from new york city gate thank you lets close in out of los angeles and talk to rob reynolds rob we know theyve been protests throughout the day we know that there was some Violence Toward some Police Vehicles one was overturned set on fire just bring us up to date with whats happening there. That is the case and the there are still several 1000 people on the streets of los angeles confronting police lines there hasnt been a great deal of violence but as you mentioned several Police Vehicles were vandalized or set on fire one Police Officer that we know of was injured hes being treated for his injuries there have been an unspecified number of arrests of demonstrators now the. Groups of demonstrators moved from one area to another most of them have been concentrated in a part of los angeles called the Fairfax District thats kind of a tony upscale shopping and entertainment venue in the streets around there so there you see the Burning Police vehicle in that area also Beverly Hills another wealthy area has been struck with protests and some damage to shops like gucci and air maize and these sorts of very upscale luxury shops but there hasnt been any notable we havent noticed any building set on fire we have not heard any reports of any think tallaght ease in any of these confrontations there will be a curfew in place in the city of Los Angeles Downtown tonight that begins about 2 hours from now dusk till dawn the same in Beverly Hills and the mayor of Los Angeles Eric garcetti is emphasizing that while he. Sympathizes with the aims of some of the protesters that is to protest racial inequality to protest. Improper Police Conduct and to express their outrage in a peaceful way hes saying that this cannot be done at the expense of destroying the city hes also saying merit our city that the theyre trying to keep the Police Activity pretty restrained and so you havent seen you know for example the kinds of like Armored Vehicles and things like that with the heavily armed police on them that i saw in ferguson missouri several years ago sure theres a lot of shoving and pushing going on here but its not in a militarized way. Night is going to be falling fairly soon derren and we hopefully will not have a repeat of last nights widespread destruction in Downtown Los Angeles but as in so many other cities around the country night time could be a bad time back to you all right to rob reynolds there live for us from Los Angeles Rob thank you well lets turn our attention now to chicago where the man across the media and the protests that have been taking place. His goal is to polarize to destabilize local government and inflames racist urges and we can absolutely not let him prevail and i will code what i really want to say to donald trump its 2 words it begins with f. And it ends with you. I will not remain silent while this man cynically tries to turn this incredibly painful moment into one for his own political gain. Lets cross over to chicago talk to tasha going to name a tasha we were talking to you earlier there some colorful words from the mayor about President Trump what more did she have to say about the president. Well Mary Lightfoot has said simply that donald trump is inciting violence her response there her rather choice rebuke that has received a lot of Media Attention was specifically a reaction to a tweet by President Trump he part of that tweet he said that when the looting starts the shooting starts that is a racially tinge comments it dates back to the Civil Rights Movement it was a comment made by a miami police chief the president later when facing outrage regarding the tweet said he was unaware of the historical reference or the fact that it was racially offensive and tried to explain himself but the mayor here in chicago like a lot of people around the country leaders activists protesters remain quite upset with the president for the 2nd time in less than 24 hours the protests here in chicago have been quite rowdy overnight more than 100 people were arrested a dozen Police Officers were injured and then mid afternoon today protesters gathered again near the Federal Building they began marching the group splintered off at one point the group was as large as 3000 people by some estimates another group ended up in front of the trump tower but the scenes were not great there were scenes of police cars spray painted with profanity protesters rocking a Police Vehicle back and forth reports of protesters hurling Water Bottles and firecrackers at Police Protesters attempting to broach a line of Police Officers in riot gear so that they could continue marching ultimately the Illinois State police did have to shut down several ramps highway ramps to try to contain. Protesters and its been quiet for the last several hours but as you can see its getting dark the sun is going to set shortly end and im quite curious to see if were going to see another group emerge we did speak to one person who attended the protests today and she said that for the most part protests were peaceful all right and a touch of the name there live for us in chicago will no doubt come back to you throughout the course of your night time there in chicago natasha but for now thank you well as i mentioned theres even been violence outside the white house where hundreds of protesters have been squaring off against the police only a u. S. President donald trump denounced the violence in minneapolis blaming it on looters and the consists my administration has opened a civil rights investigation and i have asked the attorney general and the Justice Department to expedite it i understand the pain that people are feeling we support the right of Peaceful Protesters and we hear their police but what we are now seeing on the streets of our cities has nothing to do with justice or with peace the memory of george floyd is being dishonored by rioters looters and arcus. Well democratic president ial hopeful joe biden has also weighed in on the protests tweeting that if we are complacent if we are silent we are complicit in perpetuating these cycles of violence none of u
