George Floyd protests hit US capital for fourth day

WASHINGTON D.C. US - JUNE 01: Protests continued in the US capital for a fourth day Monday over the death of George Floyd, with demonstrators flocking to Lafayette Park across from the White House in response to police violence. Hundreds of protestors defied a 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew imposed by Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser. Ahead of President Donald Trump's press briefing at the White House, police used tear gas and flash bangs to disperse protestors behind a security barricade at the focal point in the capital. Intermittent clashes occurred between law enforcers and the protestors. On Sunday, a group of people looted several businesses and caused damage in the late hours, yet again defying a curfew. Floyd, 46, was arrested on May 25 after reportedly attempting to use a counterfeit $20 bill at a store in Minneapolis, Minnesota.(Footage by Yasin Öztürk /Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
