A Minneapolis jury has reached a verdict, convicting former police officer Derek Chauvin of murder and manslaughter in the death of George Floyd. Chauvin was found guilty on all counts. He killed Floyd - a Black man - when was he filmed with his knee pressing down on Floyd's neck in May last year. The murder sparked fury and global protests against racism and police brutality. Chauvin could be sent to prison for decades. DW's Stefan Simons was on the scene in Minneapolis when the verdict was announced.
