On Friday, protests broke out all over the country, after the arrest of Derek Chauvin, ex-officer who is charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in the death of George Floyd.
In Brooklyn, protests went from peaceful to chaotic, which resulted in protestors being arrested and loaded onto a city bus; however, according to Shaun King, the bus driver, in solidarity, refused to drive it.
In the video below, Shaun King posted to Instagram and wrote,
“NYPD loaded up protestors they arrested in Brooklyn onto this city bus. The bus driver, in solidarity, refused to drive it.”
As the crowd cheers with signs, you can see someone with a mask on their face, covering their mouth, who appears to be the bus driver, get up from the driver’s seat.
The video doesn’t show what happens next, but it is clear that this driver was not going to be responsible for carrying protestors who were demanding justice to jail.
As you know, George Floyd died, during an arrest, on Monday. A 17-year-old filmed the incident and posted the video, in which it went viral.
