USA: LA jewellery shop looted amid George Floyd killing protests
Subscribe to our channel! rupt.ly/subscribe
A jewellery shop in downtown LA was the target of looting as several cities in the USA protested about George Floyd's killing on Friday.
People could be seen breaking into the shop and removing display cabinets, as they emptied drawers. The shop door was visibly damaged, with the shutters pulled up. Looters could also be seen splitting their loot outside the shop, with some half covering their faces.
A wave of protests began on Tuesday, just a day after Floyd's death, but have since descended into riots, complete with lawlessness, brawling and looting.
The rallies were sparked after the death of a 46-year-old African American in Minneapolis on Monday, after a police officer was recorded kneeling on his neck for nearly ten minutes.
The police officer who was seen putting his knee on the back of Floyd's neck was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter on Friday.
