Hundreds of people gathered in Minneapolis on Tuesday night to decide the death of George Floyd in custody, leading to a shootout between four officers. Due to this firing, the atmosphere of panic and tension in the people increased, with the windows of many houses damaged, graffiti sprayed and the police car was vandalized. The incident happened with the officials present in gear where some protesters released tear gas. According to sources, police spokesman John Elder said that a person was shot in a non-fatal incident. A suspect ran away from the spot. There is no confirmation as to whether the violence was related to the protest or not. The incident took place inside a building near the shooting site where Floyd was detained a day earlier.

Sources say that Floyd was brought to the ground by an officer, who put his knee on Floyd's neck for about 8 minutes in an incident captured in the video. Whereupon he started pleading and said, "Please, please, please, I can't breathe," Floyd asked the officer about his life. He further said, "I am very hurt and now I am suffering a lot," after that he said - "My neck is also starting to ache and now I am having a lot of difficulty in taking mother-in-law."

Later they started a march demonstration at a police station, where the officers confronted them in riot gear and started to leak tear gas and fired the projectiles. While there, he said as soon as it rained, some protesters kicked the canisters towards the police. A newspaper reporter said on Twitter that he was killed with a projectile. "I was just shot in the thigh with this,"
