Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) issued a state of emergency and activated 500 National Guard troops "to protect people & property in Atlanta" at the request of Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms (D). The mayor had issued an earlier appeal for calm in the city, though violent demonstrations continued, including outside CNN's headquarters in the city, which was vandalized.

The College Football Hall of Fame near CNN Center in Atlanta, Georgia was significantly damaged during protests downtown Friday.

Authorities had announced earlier in the day Friday that one of the officers involved in George Floyd's arrest, Derek Chauvin, would be charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter. Chauvin was seen on video kneeling on Floyd's neck for about eight minutes as he was heard saying "I can't breathe" before he eventually died.
