STANDING GUARD OUTSIDE BOTH
FINANCIALEN STI USES AND IT'S
NOT KNOWN IF ANYTHING WAS
TAKEN.
CONTINUING OUR COVERAGE
NOW WAY LOOK AT HOW ALL THIS
BREAKING NEWS UNFOLDED.
"EYEWITNESS NEWS" REPORTER
HOWARD MONROE JOINS US FROM
SPRING GARDEN TO BREAK THINGS
DOWN.
HOUR, GOOD EVENING.
GOOD EVENING TO YOU
BECAUSE OF DEMONSTRATIONS
DOWNTOWN TRAFFIC IS TIED UP
ACROSS CITY.
THIS IS 15th STREET HERE NORTH
OF VINE STREET.
NOW HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE
STILL OUT AS YOU SAW AND IN
THAT MATT PETRILLO SHOT AND WE
SPOKE WITH PHILADELPHIA POLICE
THIS AFTERNOON THEY SAID IT
WAS MOSTLY PEACEFUL MOST OF
THE DAY HOWEVER THAT CHANGED
AS THE DAY WEPT ON.
THE PROTESTS BEGAN AT NOON
OUTSIDE OF CITY HALL.
HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE FELT IN IN
SILENCE IN HONOR OF GEORGE
FLOYD.
THE MOVE WAS SYMBOLIC AS FLOYD
DIED AFTER ALTERCATION WITH A
MINNEAPOLIS POLICE OFFICER
THAT FELT IN ON HIS NECK.
LATER IN THE AFTERNOON THE
CROWD GREW LESS SILENT AND
MARCHED DOWN BEP MAN FRANKLIN
PARKWAY TO THE ART MUSEUM
DEMANDING PEOPLE SPEAK UP.
SILENCE DOESN'T CHANGE THE
WORLD BUT THE MOOD OF THE
PROTEST CHANGED AS
PARTICIPANTS LEFT THE ROCKY
STAEPZ.
A STATE POLICE CAR WAS SET ON
FIRE BROAD AND VINE AND STATE
POLICE SAYS
POLICE SAYS NO TROOPERS WERE
INJURED.
AND THE RESTAURANT ON THE BARK
WAS WAY PAINTED AND PROTESTERS
SAY THEY WERE DEMANDING
JUSTICE FOR GEORGE FLOYD AND
RESPECT FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT.
OW COMPLACENCY AND
INDIFFERENCE IS AALLOWING THIS
TO HAPPEN IN A COUNTRY THAT
MISTREATS ITS OWN CITIZENS,
BLACK AMERICAN CITIZENS IT'S
UNHEALTHY COUNTRY.
AND WE HAVE A PROBLEM ON OUR
HANDS.
THIS A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE THE
RACISM IS SYSTEMIC AND KILLING
US SILENTLY AND VIOLENTLY AND
I CAME OUT HERE BECAUSE ENOUGH
IS ENOUGH.
NOW AGAIN MUCH OF THE
TRAFFIC AND MUCH OF CENTER
CITY IS IS SHUT DOWN.
VEHICLE TRAFFIC.
SO IF YOU PLAN -- IT'S
PROBABLY BETTER FOR YOU TO
STAY AT HOME.
HOWEVER YOU SHOULD PROBABLY
STAY AT HOME BECAUSE TRAFFIC
IS NOW BACKED UP ACROSS THE
CITY. I BELIEVE YOU'RE
LOOKING LIVE AT CHOPPER FROM
CHOPPER 3 RIGHT NOW OVER JUST
STAY HOME AND IT'S UP R UNSAFE
FOR YOU TO BE OUT HERE AND IT
TAKES A LITTLE WHILE TO GET
AROUND.
LIVE IN SPRING GARDEN HOWARD
