Thank you very much for joining us 3 days of protests over the killing of an unarmed black man in the u. S. City of minneapolis have exploded into a new night of violence across the country the Police Station where the 4 officers involved in the arrests of george floyd worked has been set ablaze a large crowd began gathering outside the building a few hours ago and several other fires were late in the area and National Guard has been called into the city and the man has declared a local state of emergency for 72 hours. There is a lot of pain and anger right now in our city. I understand that our entire city recognizes that what we have seen over the past several hours in the past couple of nights in terms of looting is acceptable our communities cannot and will not tolerate while the u. S. President has just tweeted about the protests 1st warning the mayor of minneapolis to quote get is acts together and then writing that these thugs dishonoring the memory of george floyd and he wont let that happen john bosso said he had told the governor of minnesota that the military is with him all the way any difficulty and we will assume control he says but when the new ting saw. The shooting starts. Donald trump is not the 1st to use such a threat former miami police chief Walter Headley was the 1st to say when the looting starts the shooting stops while promising violent reprisals on black protests as in 1967 i mean apple is mad jacob frey pushed back against saying the city and its leadership were far from weak donald trump knows nothing about the strength of minneapolis we are strong as hell is this a difficult time period yes but you better be damn sure that were going to get through this. Well the protests over george freud stay thin against Police Brutality have been spreading across the United States at least 7 people were shot in louisville kentucky where crowds turned out to demand justice for Briana Taylor a black woman who was fatally shot by police in her home back in march officers in riot gear tried to push back large groups of protesters and theres been a standoff with police in the city of denver over the past few hours after a crowd stomped vehicles and blocked streets hundreds of protesters had earlier marched on colorados States Capital building. A poll bew bloom is a News Reporter at fox mind shine no he joins us now on the phone from minneapolis paul thank you very much for being with us we have seen crowds of protesters face off with riot police throughout the evening in minneapolis just bring us up to speed with the situation right now i things any comma. Well good day to you thanks for having me on actually i have just left you played that comment from the mayor jacob fry here in minneapolis from city hall just moments ago 6 i was at that News Conference so ive been removed from kind of the ground situation in a couple of our hardest hit neighborhoods but what i can tell you 4 as of last check of the city of minneapolis basically gave up on key Police Station in the pocket of the city where we call it the 3rd precinct 4 where george floyd was arrested and subsequently i had the precinct that serves that part of the city of minneapolis was overrun by demonstrators they broke in they breached some security fencing that had been put up they got inside and the mayor acknowledged at this News Conference that just wrapped up 1520 minutes ago that it was his decision to give up on the 3rd precinct that even the symbolism of the last building that has subsequently been set d on fire and still continues to rage in flames that that symbolism is that that loss of property and the building is far less important than protecting lives and that was the mayors decision to wave the white flag d and evacuate and youve mentioned some sort of gauge meant of demonstrators of looters of some of the the bad apples if you will the bad actors who have brought such carnage on our city these last couple of nights but there really has not been a great police in gauge meant right elise have basically ceded the 3rd Precinct PoliceDepartment Building itself and the surrounding neighborhood the firefighters they got in for the fight one blaze on that block that was started by demonstrators but right now when we went into city hall. d one last look of it d from a bridge overlooking the scene and there were several fires including that Police Station still going without a drop of water being placed on a pole tell us about the people whove been out on the screen the president in his tweet referred to thugs who has been protesting these past 3 days in Minnesota Well its i mean its a great question i mean its. After the incident in the video surfaced. There was 8000 people the minneapolis Police Department estimated at a george floyd protest rally demand for justice d to seem of the incident. 8000 it was loud people were heard they were angry they shared their feelings we had a very difficult time in our community with racial tensions especially when it comes to relationships with the police force another black man to mobley innocent handcuffed. No weapon killed on the streets of minneapolis there was anger in that crowd but they most of them marched peacefully they demonstrated peacefully but then we had a Splinter Group that was allowed to go off and create. Damage to do harm to the city and that continued for the next couple nights are there what i would call these that actors there are there you know i dont want to label them all as i mean saugus is not a term i would use but. Some are from out of town tonight at the protest d movement and our guest as we come in from the state of virginia right to be part of the trouble but bob so yeah its all good all the square feet of the guy you know who are motivated beyond a political statement as we see in the angriest spreading to other cities across the United States weve heard your mans response to the president s tweet the president saying that you know he might send in the military saying that when the looting staunch the shooting sourness this is a clear threat from President Trump and you know the president seems to be throwing gasoline on the fire how is this trying to go down with the people who have been out on the streets. Its a great question i mean the thing that confused me by the president s tweet is is the governor this is the mayor you know we have the city mayor and then the governor of the state of minnesota where minneapolis sets and the governor has allowed for the National Guard thats a state entity to come then to assist Law Enforcement in these efforts we had 500 soldiers that were deployed they were getting up to speed we were expecting them d to protect firefighters so they could go to some of our burning buildings if youve seen the video we have you know it was mentioned in the neighborhood that the 3rd precinct there are fires burning its unclear what the president means clearly hes trying to put pressure on the city hes had kind of a longstanding tug of war pushback with the mayor of minneapolis hes a young guy a good looking guy very very 9 center politically they had a brew when the when the president was going to come to minneapolis several months ago and then didnt jay come for i was going to make him pay the campaign pay for you know some of the business that was going to be needed at the local big basketball arena where trump was going to hold the rally so theres been this bitterness between the 2 and then you heard the mayor get angry answering a question about those tweets i dont know where its going i asked the mayor point blank what is the plan Going Forward the mayor did not provide specifics we know hes getting assistance from our state Law Enforcement agencies we know the military should have boots on the ground in minneapolis shortly but a lot of people in this city have been unhappy that these. You know demonstrators rioters looters have done so much damage not just to a Police Department but we have had businesses up and down several businesses corridors in minneapolis destroyed damaged and pilfered over the last couple nights and these City Residents are demanding when is it going to stop right.

S. Throughout the day here on aljazeera as the situation develops lets move on now to other world news and the reopening of hundreds of south korean schools has been suspended and some open ones were ordered to close a gain. The government is looking at revisiting easing restrictions due to a recent spike in new coronavirus cases there a further 58. 00 new cases have been announced most of them from seoul and linked to an Online Shopping warehouse lets bring in our correspondent in seoul rob mcbride so rob south korean officials scrambling to contain this new outbreak. Thats right this is an outbreak thats causing major disruption to the reopening of schools schools here in south korea as elsewhere have been closed for months and after a lot of very careful planning to make sure its done safely then very carefully we are in the middle of a staged reopening of schools its a reopening thats already been delayed by a couple of weeks because of another cluster or another outbreak and were now likely to see further disruption right in the middle of this process so some schools that had are due to reopen several 100 of them now have to put back their reopening and more than a 200 schools in an area called both to china and to the west of a soul a soul which had already reopened are having to close again no boots on is the location of this major Warehouse Distribution center that is at the center of this latest outbreak we have had the latest daily cases of the new cases of corona virus in south korea are 58. 00 and most of these cases are from this facility it is slightly less than yesterday so the authorities are hoping that theyve brought this latest cluster under control but there are had to carry out several 1000 tests of people who work at this center their Associates Family members to try to trace everybody whos been infected and it has led to the authorities know reimposing some of the restrictions that they had already relaxed at least in the greater seoul metropolitan area things like the reopening of venues like galleries and museums well they have now been closed again for another 2 weeks and in the meantime the author it is here are ordering checks on some of these large warehouse facilities to make sure that there is social distancing that workers arent working in to closer proximity with each other is being seen as a setback rob i mean has this latest outbreak going to affect the real thing. It is troubling especially in a country like south korea where weve had long periods with no local transmission at all and yet with despite its sophisticated testing and tracking mechanisms its simply seems it cant stop these clusters from from breaking out we had the other cluster a couple of weeks ago based around bars in the ito one district of seoul that caused the authorities here to close down those bars 2 months ago we had call centers being the focus of concerns because of a cluster that broke out in one of the call centers again of workers working in close proximity with each other so it just highlights the problems of reopening a big sophisticated economy in the kinds of problems that other countries are going to face in europe in the United States for example that dont have the kind of sophisticated testing that south korea has in place that arguably has more of the virus still circulating within their communities rob thank you very much for that robot bride live for us there in seoul in the philippines quarantine measures in the capital manila will start being nice from june after months of us troops locked down that severely depressed economy thats despise 539 new cases being reported on ferries save in largest spike since the 1st scare on a virus infection was reported in january in a televised address president and rehabilitated trying to reassure the nation that the vast majority of cases where mild and that theres been no death rate.
