Large Crowd Gathers in Columbus to Protest Against Death of George Floyd

Protestors gathered in Columbus, Ohio, on May 28, to demonstrate against the death of George Floyd, who died during an arrest by Minneapolis police on May 25.

Footage taken at the intersection of Broad and High Streets shows an escalation of the protest, with interactions between the crowd and riot police becoming more heated.

Protests, some violent, occurred across America since May 26, the day after video circulated of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin pinning Floyd, 46, to the ground with his knee on his neck. Floyd died soon after, according to police. Credit: Marc Wilson via Storyful
