Good News: Minnesota residents donate tons of food to school amid violent protests

The United States is currently rattled by protests, especially in the state of Minnesota, where the demonstrations began last week over the killing of an African-American man by a Caucasian police officer in Minneapolis, one of the major cities in the region. Violent protesters laid siege on the city, vandalising and looting properties, clashing with police. However, when a school asked for donations of food after supermarkets were looted and destroyed, people responded overwhelmingly by giving away free food to anyone who wanted it.

The protests erupted across the United States over the killing of George Floyd by a police officer who choked him to death pinning him on the ground with his knee. There was complete lawlessness in several states which later had to impose curfew and call in the National Guard to take control of the situation. Looting and vandalising properties were reported from many major cities in the country. Protesters also laid siege on the White House, where Secret Service had to lockdown the presidential estate after demonstrations became violent.
