7:05 a.m.: St. Paul mayor wants focus to remain on George Floyd
Carter said there are clearly people from outside the community that are coming in to join the protests, but the more important thing is how the acts of violence amid the demonstrations is taking the focus away from Floyd's death. The NYPD believes the destruction of property, particularly at high-end retail stores, is part of a preconceived plan by agitators who have co-opted the demonstrations related to Floyd's death. Destruction of police vehicles is also part of that plan, the NYPD has said.A NYPD officer walks by a vandalized St. Patrick's Cathedral on May 30, 2020 in New York City.
Miller said the NYPD has “high confidence” certain anarchist groups anticipated the eruption of protests over Floyd’s death in custody and began to raise bail money and recruit medics. Hennepin County Sheriff David Hutchison made the request to move him over concerns about the large number of people who could possibly be booked into Hennepin County Jail tonight and concerns over COVID-19.
In New York City's Foley Square, a cheer went up among protesters when a group of NYPD officers took a knee in a show of solidarity. Last night, elements of the D.C. National Guard were sent to Lafayette Park in front of the White House and to other landmarks on the National Mall.
