30 May 2020 Protests continue in the US for the fourth consecutive day for the killing in Minneapolis by the police of George Floyd. Moments of tension occurred in front of the White House where the lockdown had taken place following the protests of hundreds of people.

After three consecutive nights of widespread and growing protests and looting, and hundreds of businesses damaged or destroyed by fire, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has announced a mandatory night curfew for this weekend. To report it is the site of the local CBS. The measure covers all public places, including roads, and extends from 8 to 6 in the morning, starting from tonight and will also remain on Saturday evening. While a weekend-long curfew was ordered in Minneapolis, the same ban was imposed in two other cities in Missouri, St. Paul and Roseville. 

New video on social media, three agents above Floyd
A new video published on social media, also reported by CNN, shows that during the arrest operation three agents blocked George Floyd with his knees, to the point of causing his death. So far, only one agent, Derek Chauvin, has been indicted and arrested, while three others are under investigation. The report reported that Chauvin had his knee on Floyd's neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds in total, and 2 minutes and 53 seconds after Floyd no longer reacted. The FBI has asked Twitter for assistance from the population in investigating the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis by posting photos or videos of the incident.

St. Paul, Minnesota, Mayor Melvin Carter says the charges against the fired Minneapolis police officer seen in a video with his knee on George Floyd's neck is a "good start," but "it's not enough."
