  • Security footage from a restaurant near where George Floyd was taken into custody by Minneapolis police officers on Monday shows him turning around to look at his handcuffed wrists and grimacing in pain.
  • NBC News obtained nearly 60 minutes of surveillance video showing everything from Floyd being taken out of his car to being led across the street to a squad car, where he appears to fall down.
  • That's where one of the officers, Derek Chauvin, pinned Floyd under his knee for eight minutes as Floyd said he couldn't breathe.
  • A Minneapolis Fire Department incident report described an off-duty firefighter as saying they saw Floyd "go from struggling to unresponsive on the ground while handcuffed and subdued" by the officers.

Surveillance video from a Minneapolis restaurant near where George Floyd was handcuffed by police officers on Monday sheds light on the moments leading up to his arrest and death.
NBC News obtained an hour's worth of security footage from about 8:30 p.m. when the police arrived at Cup Foods to investigate reports of a customer trying to pay with counterfeit money. Two rookie officers found Floyd, 46, sitting in a parked car, the Star Tribune reported.
In the video, which has no audio, a police officer approaches the car and addresses the people in it before a man gets out from the passenger side and a woman gets out from the back seat. The officer then walks around to the driver's side, and Floyd emerges in handcuffs a few minutes later.
Another officer, who has a mask on his face, can be seen asking the woman to back up toward the wall, which she does, with her hands raised in the air.
Floyd, who can be seen saying something to the police officer, is led onto the sidewalk. With his back against the wall, he slides down to the ground while the officer talks to him. Another cruiser then pulls up with two more officers, whom the Star Tribune identified as Derek Chauvin and Tou Thao.
