A cacophony of celebration broke out in downtown Minneapolis Tuesday afternoon, as a Hennepin County judge read the guilty verdicts against ex-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin.
Hundreds of people gathered outside the courthouse, which had been enclosed in razor wire, in advance of the verdict, many playing live feed from inside the courthouse on their phones.
