More about this heinous act from Reuters:

Four Minneapolis police officers were fired a day after a bystander filmed one of them kneeling on the neck of an unarmed black man who later died in a hospital. Activists are calling for the officers to be charged https://t.co/2Xm6ohcBP7 pic.twitter.com/pTIZLNMhZf

And CNN shows a photo of the incident.  There is NO excuse whatsoever to DO this to another person, and I don't care what the person was alleged to have done:

Four Minneapolis police officers have been fired for their involvement in the death of George Floyd, a black man who was held down with a knee as he protested that he couldn’t breathe, officials said Tuesday. The FBI is investigating the incident. https://t.co/eBMpPnKdVb
