Thousands defy curfews for George Floyd protests as second week of fury rages on

protesters across the US defied curfews on Tuesday night after a week of riots sparked by peaceful protests over the death of George Floyd - who died after a police officer knelt on his neck for eight minutes. Hundreds are believed to have been arrested in cities like Minneapolis, Atlanta, Washington DC and New York after demonstrators refused to obey curfews imposed by city officials. In New York, Mayor Bill de Blasio doubled down on a citywide curfew, moving it up from 11 pm the night before to 8pm, but rejected urging from President Donald Trump and an offer from Gov. Andrew Cuomo to bring in the National Guard. "Everyone, time to go home so we can keep people safe," he said on WINS-AM radio shortly after the curfew took effect. But his pleas were ignored by crowds of hundreds around the city who continued marching throughout the streets. In some areas, police let people continue on their way, while making arrests in others.
