WATCH: This 10-year-old boy stopped playing basketball and hid from a police car as it drove by. When his father asked him why he did it, his response was: "Because they killed George Floyd." https://t.co/EVjez2rdym

The fight to win #JusticeforFloyd is still not over. We must hold the DA accountable to arrest and charge ALL three officers with murder.

@HennepinAtty, there are still 3 murderers roaming free. Arrest and charge them now! Text 'FLOYD' to 55156.
