An unnamed man decided to take advantage of the ongoing chaos to hop on a treadmill at a local Planet Fitness in Minneapolis that rioters broke into. Footage of the incident went viral on social media. Demonstrators meanwhile clashed with police for a fourth straight night in Minneapolis, but riots also raged from New York to Los Angeles in one of the worst nights of national civil unrest in years.
In Atlanta police cruisers were attacked and set ablaze as rallies spun out of control, while in the capital Washington protesters collided with Secret Service agents in heated midnight scenes in front of the White House.
In Minneapolis, Derek Chauvin, the white officer filmed kneeling on the neck of a handcuffed and unarmed George Floyd for nearly nine minutes, was charged with one count of third-degree murder -- unintentionally causing a death -- and one count of negligent manslaughter.
