MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Tuesday marks one year since George Floyd was killed while being arrested by Minneapolis police officers.
Floyd died on May 25, 2020. Now-fired officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of his murder earlier this spring. The three other former officers charged in Floyd’s death will stand trial together next year.
All four ex-officers are also facing federal charges for allegedly violating Floyd’s civil rights during the deadly arrest. In the year since Floyd’s death, the intersection where he was killed—38th and Chicago—has become an international memorial to Floyd and a gathering place for the community.
