Shocking new surveillance video appears to show George Floyd in a violent struggle with Minneapolis police before his death.
Floyd can't be seen in the footage, but one cop can be seen leaning through the back door and visibly struggling with him.
The clip was posted by activist Shaun King, who wrote: 'BREAKING: Just got this new video. It’s all coming together. Police were in the car beating the sh** out of George Floyd. One stands watch, while the others attacked him.'
Later, white officer Derek Chauvin was captured on video by a bystander kneeling on Floyd's neck as he begged for air.
Floyd, 46, fell unconscious and died, and Chauvin, 44, has since been charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, which are filed in cases of unintentional death.
Chauvin also was accused of ignoring another officer who expressed concerns about Floyd, a black man, as he lay handcuffed on the ground.

It’s about the media template, so it doesn’t matter. Michael Brown attacking Darren Wilson doesn’t matter. Freddie Gray in Baltimore doesn’t matter. I could go on, but you get the idea and it simply doesn’t matter. Get ready to fight because politics & the judicial system are no longer a valid option for conservative white people.
oh just shut up.
the dude is 6ft 7 and you don’t grabble with someone in the back of a car you get them out to apply TRAINED RESTRAINING TECHNIQUES.
Give it up already.
“”””””4 officers could not secure 1 man in a patrol car?
Looks like they pulled him out to teach him a lesson.””””””””
A very large guy who is possibly high on drugs can be very powerful.
We've always had leftist trolls here on FR but a few long time Freepers have been taken in too.
Same members are noticeable absent when discussing the riots. Secretly they agree with ANTIFA.
This is what FR has become.
“approved restraint position”
First I’ve heard of that. You have a source?
I can see a knee in the back as restraint, but on the neck?
This is what I was thinking too. the struggle to get him completely inside, instead the got him out to secure him and themselves.
No, I don’t watch that show.
Then hog tie him if necessary.
That fat, short cop is doing nothing.
I knew there was more to it but these people just want an excuse to riot.
‘He violently resisted arrest.’
amazing how violent a handcuffed guy can be against four armed, trained men...
Ok....so the cop is totally innocent.....then drop the charges.
Well, I guess those seemingly light charges were appropriate after all. To those, we can add assault, I suppose, unless Mr. Floyd was clearly fighting them.
It's already the rule in some dem cities.
AND, if you are black and in prison, you need to be let out NOW!
That’s why they media never releases all footage only cell phone snippets. There are plenty of security cameras in that area which will show all angles but they are only released in drips.
By the time more information is released the narrative has been set by the media and others and the results are what we are seeing now.
I once posted we should wait for the investigation of the police and was trolled for six years.
Google is your friend. There have been articles posted on FR stating that this is a restraining technique in MN and other places.
If you’re really interested in the facts you’d already know this.
I’ll probly get flamed for this comment but...
failure to comply with police direction seems to be very common with blacks. If this man would have just done as police directed I suspect he would still be alive.
Doing what police told me to do in my young and wilder days kept me out of the back of a police car and/or arrested on several occasions I’m sure. A couple of yes sirs and no sirs never hurt either.
was the store Floyd stiffed paying protection?
The black Somali killer cop who murdered Justine Damond was charged with the same 3rd degree murder and 2nd degree manslaughter...the penalty is 20 years I think...
