Protests erupted in Minneapolis for the second day in a row on Wednesday, spilling into the early hours of Thursday morning, over the death of George Floyd , a Black man who died after a white police officer kneeled on his neck.

The demonstrations turned violent in some areas following a daylong protest outside a police station where officers used tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse attendees. Some people entered stores as night settled in, setting an AutoZone retail outlet on fire and carrying goods out of a vandalized Target. A Dollar Tree and a local supermarket also showed signs of damage and theft, the Associated Press reported .

One person was shot and killed at a pawn shop by the stores owner as officials urged residents to go home, police said early Thursday.

Please, Minneapolis, we cannot let tragedy beget more tragedy, the citys mayor, Jacob Frey, told The Star Tribune .

Yes, were reeling, he continued. We are reeling, and I understand the anger and pain, and we need the publics help in keeping the peace tonight. We need that in order to get through this together.

Frey had called for charges to be filed in Floyds death earlier in the day.
