A reporter was talking about police reform changes at the eponymous "George Floyd Square," where the thug life ended for Floyd, and suddenly gunshots were fired, leaving the reporter, Philip Crowther, to run and seek cover.
Crowther is an international reporter for the Associated Press GMS. He was covering the anniversary of Floyd's final arrest when the shooting interrupted his reporting.
“BREAKING: shots appear to have been fired at George Floyd Square. Quiet now. People still sheltering in place,” Crowther posted early Tuesday afternoon. “We heard a few dozens sounds of what appear to have been shots fired on this block. Everyone sheltered in place. Lots of running. No apparent need for medics. Will update.”

Social workers were quick to not arrive on scene.

“From our vantage point we see one broken window, apparently from one of the shots fired,” he continued. “Consensus among reporters here at George Floyd Square was that we heard anywhere between a dozen and two dozen shots fired.”
“Quick rough footage of the moment we heard shots fired at George Floyd Square. We counted 30 upon looking back at the footage,” Crowther added.

“George Floyd Square very quiet again now,” the reporter said about one hour after his initial tweet. “But a fellow reporter just had her phone smashed because she took photos of a storefront hit by a bullet.” The phone smashing was a simple gesture to honor the death of a fellow thug.

On April 20, a jury found former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter in relation to the death of Floyd. There seems to be little doubt that the verdict was largely determined by the media, the failure to have the trial elsewhere, and the pressure put on jurors by an enraged, anti-cop mob.
Floyd’s death was a perfect excuse for the violent protesting and riots across the nation last summer.
Black Lives Matter, a Communist group central to the protesting and rioting, has called for the national defunding of police officers. Their voices only amplified following the Floyd incident and the need for greater policing was put on display by the Marxist anarchists.
