Minnesota Vikings Release Strong Statement After The Death of George Floyd By Cops (PIC)

Protesters have crowded the streets everyday on the Minneapolis intersection where George Floyd lost consciousness with the knee of a city police officer pressing against his neck.

Video showed the unarmed black man laying face-down on the pavement while he could be heard verbally telling police officers that he could not breathe.

Floyd, 46, was pronounced dead at a hospital shortly thereafter.

On Wednesday, the Minnesota Vikings decided to release a statement on the matter since it happened just a few blocks away from U.S. Bank Stadium.

Four cops have since been fired as a result of their actions earlier this week.

The case is under investigation by the FBI and Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.
