Video doesn’t appear to show George Floyd resisting arrest as cops claimed | New York Post

Surveillance video does not appear to show George Floyd, who died after being pinned down by Minneapolis cops, resisting arrest — which police had claimed — in the moments before the deadly encounter.

Floyd, who is black, can be seen on footage from a nearby restaurant Monday complying with cops as he’s led from a vehicle, CBS News reported.

With his hands cuffed behind his back, he appears to be ordered to sit on the ground, which he does, video shows.

The footage contradicts police accounts that Floyd “physically resisted officers” after he exited his vehicle.
