Officers charged in the fatal arrest of a black man in Minneapolis were dismissed.
- Four Minnesota officers were shot following the arrest of a man who died on Monday night after being stabbed to the ground by an officer who had put his knee on the man’s neck for about eight minutes.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said it was a “right call” to put an end to the officers involved in the tweet that revealed the decision on Tuesday. Police said the Minnesota Criminal Investigation Unit and the FBI would jointly investigate the incident.
Four responding MPD officers involved in the death of George Floyd have been terminated.
This is the right call.
— Mayor Jacob Frey (@MayorFrey) May 26, 2020
Video of the altercation reveals that a white police officer had a black man, known as George Floyd, pressed to the ground next to the rear end of his patrol car with his knee on the man’s back.
“Please , please, please, I can’t breathe,” begs the guy. “My stomach hurts, my back hurts, please, I can’t breathe.”
Seekers outside the Minneapolis deli meanwhile urge the officer to get away from the man.
“You quit breathing right now, do you think that’s cool?” asks one guy. “His nose is bleeding, look at his nose,” said a woman.
The officer is not budging.
And then the guy is going to be gone. More people begin to intervene and call the officer or his partner to check for a pulse. The officer remained on the man’s back, even though he was obviously ignored, for a total of about eight minutes until the ambulance arrived and the man was put on a stretcher.
NBC News doesn’t know what happened until the video recording began.
A statement issued by the Minneapolis Police Department early Tuesday said the officers had responded to a call of forgery in progress and discovered the perpetrator in his vehicle. When he was asked to leave the car, the police said, but then violently defied the officers.
“The police were able to place the suspect in handcuffs and noted that he seemed to be suffering from mental problems,” the statement added. “The police called for an ambulance. He was rushed by an ambulance to Hennepin County Medical Center, where he died a short time later.”
The examination of the medical examiner is pending.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called the arrest footage “disturbing” in a tweet on Tuesday.

“Rap City,” which debuted in 1989, is one of the most groundbreaking shows in hip-hop history. On Oct. 10, BET will air Welcome to Rap City, a three-part documentary about how the show became a beacon in hip-hop culture for decades while also providing an outlet for artists who, for a long time, didn’t have a mainstream platform. The show saw several different hosts and iterations in its 19-year run.
In preparation for the upcoming documentary, here’s the rundown of five quick facts about the iconic show’s history.
History-making Television
“Rap City” premiered one year after “Yo! MTV Raps” and seven years after “Video Music Box” but ultimately went on to become the longest-running TV show centered around Hip-Hop. That record has yet to be broken and “Rap City” has served as a blueprint for modern day digital shows and podcasts focused on the genre.
Bob Johnson Thought Hip-Hop was a Fad
At first, BET co-founder Robert L. Johnson was not confident about Hip-Hop’s future. “Video Vibrations” aired on BET five years before “Rap City” debuted. The music video program played Hip-Hop, but mixed in with other genres, including Pop, Reggae, and R&B. Johnson’s marker of success at the time was when an artist got an interview with Donnie Simpson. However, “Video Vibrations” host Alvin Jones encountered rappers who felt they weren’t getting enough airplay. He spent an entire week airing nothing but Hip-Hop videos on the show. It was a ratings hit that led to “Rap Week,” which then became “Rap City.”
Biggie’s Last Interview
On Feb. 24,1997, “Rap City” host Joe Clair interviewed The Notorious B.I.G. on the set of “Hypnotize.” Biggie promoted his sophomore album, Life After Death, discussed Tupac Shakur’s passing and the state of hip-hop at that time. It turned out to be the rapper’s last televised interview – he was murdered almost two weeks later on March 9.
Jay-Z’s First Televised Appearance
In 1990, host Hans Dobson interviewed Big Daddy Kane, who came on the show to address the rumor that he had HIV. He confirmed that he did not, and he also brought a promising new talent with him. That talent was Jay-Z, and it was his first time on TV. Jay-Z delivered a freestyle and put the world on notice that he was coming.
Introduced Freestyling to Mainstream Audiences
“Rap City” introduced freestyling, which has become an iconic part of BET’s universe, to mainstream audiences. Freestyle battles made their way to “106 and Park” on “Freestyle Friday” and are still a highly anticipated part of the BET Hip-Hop Awards.
