that's the situation we are seeing here in soho.hose businesses that had a gate or security guard, they were able to protect themselves. others were not. rick: thank you for your reporting to mike, i want to let our viewers know, we are watching images from portland, oregon, fireworks the demonstrators are firing fireworks at portland police officers who were firing tear gas at them. the cops were firing tear gas and protesters were firing fireworks. let's turn to another flashpoint in this national crisis where it started in minneapolis, minnesota, that's where george floyd died after an officer held him down with his knee on floyd neck for nearly five minutes. mike is there with the national guard on the streets of minneapolis. mike, what is the situation there? reporter: a very different situation than you are seen in the other towns that are flashing now. this is a city that's not without problems, there were other incidences tonight but it's a city that has largely been clamped down with a big show of force and for the second n

this is a dior in soho.he crowd of people took this door down of the dior that leads down to a basement. here is the broken glass. and i was showing i believe rick leventhal that this store was protected because they had this gate after the glass broke. they found a way to come through the gate. looting has been happening in the middle of downtown manhattan for hours. the police have been coming in here going block to block. as soon as the police are on this block, a group of people go to the next block and they don't have the manpower to arrest people. we have seen people with full-blown merchandise, cars filled to the brim with things from chanel and gucci. they have the stolen merchandise in the basket of that city bike. remember when we were live and we heard the big bang. turns out they threw fireworks and torched a new york city police van at the end of this block. and that's what's left of it. you have an impossible situation for the nypd that is stretched thin. this is the new york police van right h

behind me is a chanel store here in soho. this is really the luxury store center of new york city, a place where many tourists come and people love to come to be seen or if you can afford it, to buy stuff. you can see some of the stuff that's left over, gucci things. they find their way into the store this way, just follow me real quick. they broke through the glass and made their way in and stole all of that. dozens of stores in soho have been ransacked, completely wiped clean. we saw police officers here but, frankly, today they were stretched all over the city. i had never had a night like this ever where the protests were jumping from one place to the other of and sporadic and different boroughs. the nypd stretched, really and we saw people getting arrested but at the same time the nypd couldn't arrest hundreds of people here for running from one store to the next. so the looters would go to one block and then go to the other block when the police weren't there and would just keep making their way for hours on end. they p

soho is premier shopping wordwide. this is a lululemon here. you can see, that's the situation we are dealing with here. we'll continue down on spring street we would see a similar situation. rick: that guy who said we are at war, is he still there? i wonder who he thinks he's at war with. >> he said it and walked off. rick: that's probably better. we'll move to a big city down the turnpike. the national guard heading to philadelphia, as citywide looting and riots continue there. we have jacqui heinrich on the ground in philly who brought us images of locals guarding a target. but it looks like you found another place that did not get that protection. reporter: if you want to see the aftermath of anarchy. we are on west 52nd and walnut. this has been ransacked. it's a drug store on the corner that's been looted. trash and debris strewn all the way up the streets. there are no policemen in the streets. not a single traffic officer to be scene. there is a sense of lawlessness. if you look inside the store you can see the destruction. be careful h

in an absolutely, i am here in the soho in new york city and you can see behind mejust in the soho ink city and you can see behind me just some of these stores that were vandalised and looted, and i can tell you just walking around soho all morning and all afternoon there are clues here boarding up the stores... we are going to have to interrupt you because the results are now being announced by the committee there and the attorney general that has gathered to represent george floyd's family. unless you're wilson, who is the director of autopsy and forensic sciences at the university of michigan, and we have won it the most renowned forensic scientists in the world living today, piece is not the absence of tension, but the presence of justice. and not the absence of tension, but the presence ofjustice. and we believe truth will help lead to justice and so, despite how painful these autopsy findings are, especially for george floyd's family, we think it is essential that the truth comes out about the manner and exact manner and science as to how george floyd was killed. and even though

hundreds of people forming into soho. witnesses say as early as 11:00 p.m., garbage bags and vehicles filled with stolen

it's called soho, it's a shopping area, a lot of big brand stores like chanel, gucci, they were looted this evening. now, they're doing this, they're moving around because there are still groups, smaller groups of people walking around, picking up whatever's left behind on the ground. you're looking at a diesel store right here, completed gutted and still left wide open. so there is still that fear that people could come back and try to grab whatever is really left. in fact, i just saw a couple minutes ago a couple of girls walking past me with shopping bags and rolling a carry-on, looked like they had brought that to put all the stuff that they had stolen. so this has been pretty brazen here. this all started a couple hours ago, over in brooklyn. thousands of protesters swarmed barclays center last night, they shut down the manhattan bridge, they were marching from brooklyn over here to manhattan. amid the chaos, dozens were art, including mayor de blasio's daughter. she has been charged with unlawful assembly. she's already been released. the nypd has been responding to videos of pro

we are in the soho neighborhood. and as you mentioned, a lot of the destruction, the damage was centered in brooklyn as well as manhattan, but here in soho, if you've been here, you know there are a lot of luxury stores. this is a big shopping area. but looters were able to bust through these storefronts. you can see there the smashed glass. they ransacked this store, essentially, and basically pulled the merchandise out. but this is something that we are seeing block after block here in soho. and andrea, also, there were questions about whether the mayor will be issuing any sort of curfew. he said that is still under consideration for today. andrea? >> kathy park, thank you so much. let's bring in our panel, "washington post" columnist eugene robinson, former chair of the new york city police civilian complaint review board maya wiley, and national urban league president and former mayor of new orleans, marc morial. first to you, marc morial, as a national leader, a national leader of a civil rights organization. th

well in the midst of the covert crisis and black lives matter protests the soho district of new york has been turned into an art gallery hundreds of artists have painted the plywood of boarded up shop storefronts with protest are depicted expressions of hope and healing as gabriel and sunday reports. where some people see an eyesore artists see it candice the stores in new york's soho district 1st closed in march because of the covert pandemic but then were boarded up for protection during the recent protests and spread occluding and now weeks later the entire neighborhood has become an open air art gallery of sorts of protest art work on almost every block artists have converted boarded up businesses into artistic statements to mark these unprecedented times i think. we're living through the greatest period of change. in. i don't know maybe think the berlin wall found on one corner we find artists trevor croupe painting his 2nd mural in the neighborhood hundreds of people of the bank you to me as they're walking by. you see an outpouring of creativity some artists i haven't painted

you're seeing some of the results of what happened last night here in new york city, particularly in soho. and this is one of the things that they've keyed in on, is that they're not naming specific groups. antifa is a part of this. but they're not naming specific groups here. what they're kind of saying is, look, we're looking at anarchist groups, we're looking at disparate groups, essentially, splinter factions, andreandrea, represent all sorts of viewpoints, but are really, the main goal here, according to police officials here in new york and other police officials across the country that we've spoken to, is to create chaos among protests that are going on. police officials here have used the word hijack. they're trying to hijack what would be normally peaceful protests by people who are out protesting what happened in minneapolis, what we've seen there with the minneapolis police department, as well as just broader issues and socioeconomic issues between minority communities and the rest of this country. so, i think that's what they are seeing here. and i think it's a little bit more

and as you said, wolf, soho, it really is what happened in soho last night, what finally made the mayor and the governor and the police say we need to do something else to get this under control. so you'll have the curfew and obviously the more police out, the presence will be much larger tonight, wolf. >> i want you to be careful, shimon, over there, because i'm worried about what might unfold in the coming hours. don lemon is still with us. don, you live in new york city, you know this area, you know union square, you know soho. give us a little big picture of what you sense we should be bracing for. >> it's interesting, wolf, because the number of cities that we've had on our screen, are cities that i've lived in for a number of years. it's surreal to see these images playing out in these beautiful cities. we're looking at this cavernous city with thousands of people out, a city that has been virtually empty for months because of covid-19, and all these people are suddenly showing up with a concern that cities may become super spreader cities. these protests >>> i think we are braced

it's already happening with the looting over shops are preparing to reopen a group called soho social impact is trying to preserve as much of the art as possible and there is a lot from the hopeful to the defiant to the art that makes you think telling the story of new york and america the past few weeks on the most unlikely of canvases gabriels on. new york. this is all it is here are these are the top stories donald trump has addressed a smaller than expected crowd in tulsa oklahoma that his 1st major public rally since the cone of virus crisis began some had called for the rally to be canceled saying the timing was racially insensitive and posed a health risk trump used his appearance to attack a black lives matter protesters. when americans are largely left wing radicals burned down buildings. destroyed private property here hundreds of dedicated police officers. these police officers they get injured they don't complain they're incredible and. thousands upon thousands of people only hear the rather they say what a beautiful rally of. one of new york's top federal prosecutors as t

brynn gingras is live in soho with the latest details. >> reporter: we moved a couple blocks away from the really,ry high-end, still in soho but this is broadway, which is the main thoroughfare through this area of new york city and got a bunch of other stores also hit up. there's usually graffiti you will see, this store was broken into. they obviously smashed the win toe here, grabbed whatever was here in the display, that store not ruined as much but certainly we have seen a lot of worst cases with the more high-end stores we've been showing to you all mornings. i wanted to come to this location. look at this. this is an nypd enforcement, traffic enforcement vehicle that was torched, something else that happened last night so in addition to all the looting that was happening, it was incidents like this. we've learned also a molotov cocktail an incident that happened over the weekend, it happened again overnight as well. this is a command center for nypd for this area. what we've been seeing throughout the morning from the very beginning at 5:00 this morning is police from this comma

>>> good evening, everyone the shattered glass of a night of rage has largely bb been swept up in soho neighborhood in ne york and communities across the country racked by spasms of looting and violence overnight. the ritual of boarding up takes place and bracing for what tonight may bring. an anguished and weary america asking when will this all end? when will the protests end? when will the police brutality that triggered them end the virus, the financial ruin that have taken a city to the edge, when will they end tonight as an independent autopsy reveals new information about george floyd's death in police custody, his brother is sending a poignant and powerful message. we're covering it all starting with ron allen. ron, what's the latest >> reporter: lester, new york's mayor just changed course and ordered a curfew from 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. in the mornsing as we gea up for more demonstrations and the possibility of violence the crowds are gathering in the streets. police are gearing up. doubling the number of patrols in the parts of the city where there's been trouble across the

the picture you're looking at in soho. what they are trying to do and target, police say, are these high-end retail shops, chain stores. i believe that lululemon. so when you look at these stores, the areas targeted last night in new york city, areas targeted in los angeles, philadelphia, other cities, high-end shops, wealthy shops. that's what they are looking to target. according to john miller, they say that the groups are focused on disorderly activity and that they have these resupply mechanisms set up for rocks, bottles, even gasoline. we're approaching nearly 60 nypd cop cars that have been torched so far. we've seen the same in other parts of the country, stephanie. so starting to get a handle on what these groups are doing but it's been a real challenge for them so far to be able to put their hands on them and disrupt them from hijacking what they call peaceful protests that the city welcomes at this point, stephanie. >> and that delineation is so important for the thousands of people who are participating in peac

they went through soho park, and there were arrests made in soho. it was relatively quiet here. we were here just moments before the crowd showed up, and it was very quiet, peaceful. and all of the sudden a group got here and police just rushed in. i just want you to hear here the protesters now chanting "shame" at the police. and the police are just lined up here, as you see in their helmets. and, you know, there are -- it seems that police are trying to push the crowd back. but so far, you know, with the chanting, here we see police pushing more back. >> get back, get back. >> so this is how -- this is how it works. the police will move in, chris, and tell them to move back. >> shimon, i hear you. i hear you. let's just watch the scene for a second so people can absorb it for themselves. >> the police are pushing us back. >> so shimon, you and the team, move out of the way. find yourself a safe opportunity place to start your coverage. do not stay directly in the line of the police who are pushing you backwards. find a safe space for you and the team. i have the coverage until

this is the neighborhood of soho. >> reporter: we still have helicopters above us.re are people on their bicycles, people walking around. there are people out and we're seeing police. for the viewers that don't know what soho is, this is a high end shopping district in new york. normally the streets would be crowded with people during the day, however, of course we've been in a pandemic and all of these stores have been closed. this is chanel. this store was preparing for these protests to happen because they even put up wood but the protesters actually tore down the wood, broke the glass, went into the store and it's completely ran sacked. there is merchandise like this, shoes, high end shoes, lipstick. there's around the corner bags and bags of empty bags of -- that had jewelry inside of them. it's just incredible to see this. again, the wood that's just on the ground that was torn down. this is still chanel. you can see police here are stationed to keep post while we're being told by the nypd, they're still taking an inventory of this area that has just, again, b

i'm walking now here -- we're in the soho area. the soho area was hit hard by looters. there are many stores that are boarded up, and that's what went on last night. very different than what we're seeing here. you know, there are all sorts of ways, obviously, as she said, to protest. i've covered other protests. you've covered protests, and what went on last night was much different than people expressing their anger or sitting in the street and getting arrested, because they've refused to leave by sitting in the street. you know, that is much different than anything that i saw last night, where it was just -- criminal entities. i mean, organized fashion of people looting and breaking in to stores and just running -- i have no -- really, the best way i could put it is just running wild. as i said to you earlier, the only people on the streets last night at one point were reporters. i was out there. police and the looters. and all over manhattan. somewhere were carrying bats and sticks. so much different, and, you know -- those moments shouldn't overshadow what's happeni

and as looting was happening in soho, it was something we had never seen in recent memory, really, we had small skirmishes of people, young people going into luxury stores in soho and stealing things from chanel, gucci, and the police try to stop them from one block to the next but the skirmishes moved from the next block once the police left. that was an uncontrolled situation. under this curfew, 4,000 additional police will be deployed in lower manhattan and in downtown brooklyn. but again, on a night a curfew has been put in effect in new york city. this is one of the larger protests so far, peaceful, that is what we have seen days before. peaceful protests that have been turned violent because of agitators in the crowd. bret. >> bret: bryan llenas, stay safe there in new york. thank you. there are people with ideas how the country can come together during a time of strife. bob johnson has a proposal to address one major area of contention and joins us tonight. bob, thank you for being here. i want to first get your overall feelings after days of these protests and what we have see

in the set of streets between soho and trafalgar square. so those are police lines there. had some reports of trouble or whether there are there just, of trouble or whether there are therejust, again, as part of the dispersal of police to ensure there are no groups of demonstrators causing trouble around central london, will no doubt find out a little later. we heard priti patel‘s comments about the memorial to pc keith palmer, the police officer stabbed to death outside of parliament. an appeal has been made to identify a man, who has urinated next to the memorial to pc keith palmer. the police officer was stabbed to death in the westminster bridge terror attack in 2017. this photograph was taken during the protests that were held in westminster this afternoon. but the gates into the houses of parliament there. —— that's the gates. the metropolitan police federation chairman, ken marsh, has suggested the man pictured should be sent to prison. we can speak now to tobias ellwood, the conservative mp for bournemouth east. thanks for talking to us, you are one of the first at

. >> reporter: a lot of this happened after the curfew was in effect, you are in the soho area where the looting was taking place, it was a places, not just in the soho area. >> reporter: i'm in midtown manhattan where the macy's flagship store is. there are stores all over the place, madison avenue got hit. they are picking and choosing different parts. not a lot left behind their. in midtown, every one is wonder what is next. i want to deck out one more thing that is heartbreaking for me to see. i've seen essential workers walk past me. people we have been clapping for every night, saving us from covid-19 at as they go to work, they wake up before the sun rises and they have to see things like this as they walk into the hospitals and try to protect them. ainsley: the curfew last night was 11:00. if they want people off the streets they would have to do it much earlier and they realize too late that was wrong so tonight will be at 8:00 but clearly that will lead to the frustration of the police officers that the mayor and governor says it is okay to stay on the street until 11:00 wh

we rming area of soho and canal between west broadway.significant number of stores broken into. we are still out there actually as we speak making arrests. there have been hundreds of arrests. brian: commissioner, it seems to me that you did not have enough officers. did you not -- they had -- they seemed to have outmaneuvered you. they hit you with more people than you are prepared to push back against. do you feel as though you were caught -- caught unable to respond to the challenge that was in front of you? >> no doubt a challenging time. i would say this is one of the most challenging times of 30 years of policing. i have tell you we had thousands of officers deployed last night. made radical shifts to our chart literally from all ends ever the department? terms of protests and balancing orderly protest and respecting people's rights to peaceably assemble. that was going on all day throughout new york city, large crowds in brooklyn. significant crowds in brooklyn and manhattan. it turned dark and ugly and turned that way fast. i thin

god i'm standing here on spring street close to broadway in soho and this is one of the most important shopping areas especially also for high class products here in the city that's where we also saw a lot of looting in the past couple of even names that everything is a border up a some more valuable stores like apple for example even installed 2 layers of what i haven't seen quite anything quite like it in my 20 plus years in new york and it's not just big business but it's also small business owners boutiques who really get hurt because they can't open their stores at the moment. so retailers are bracing themselves for more protests and potentially more that could also lead to a hit in revenues does not have wall street concern. that's what you would guess and the general feeling that i'm getting here is that this is far from over i did go to some protests in the city today 10 thousands of people going on the street that some point i was even locked down in my own office building because we could not leave while the protest was going on in front of the door but well wall street does

a store on the lower east side in soho in manhattan has absolutely nothing to do with this. those who are the property owners were innocent victims of this. that is opportunistic looting, and there's nothing i can say to prevent that. but what we can do is talk to those who are angry, who are motivated by this movement to say that, if your protest causes into violence, it is counterproductive and you're exceeding the moral high ground. >> thank you, jeh johnson. >>> two police officers in atlanta fired for excessive force. the dramatic body cam video just released. that's next. my nunormal: fewer asthma attacks. less oral steroids. taking my treatment at home. nucala is a once-monthly add-on injection for severe eosinophilic asthma. not for sudden breathing problems. allergic reactions can occur. get help right away for swelling of face, mouth, tongue, or trouble breathing. infections that can cause shingles have occurred. don't stop steroids unless told by your doctor. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. may cause headache, injection site reactions, back pai

brynn gingras joins us in soho on the latest with the cleanup efforts.ere are so striking, brynn. >> reporter: you really can't walk past a single store without seeing graffiti on it or the business owners putting up more wood to try to stop the looting this morning. here's a store that they haven't gotten to yet. they tore down the wood that was used to protect this dolce & gabanna. this is what we're seeing here in the soho section, the high-end section of new york city. there was a jewelry store owner that allowed us to come inside and shoot inside, because it's just incredible. it's almost organized, guys, what we're seeing in some of these stores, because they're not just going in and stealing what's in a smash and grab situation, they're literally going to the back end of the store, going to where merchandise is kept, and inventory, and taking it all. and the business owner said to me, or manager, rather, said to me this is not the protestors. these are looters. and he's like, we are suffering so much. guys, you got to remember, we're still under t

they went through soho park and there were arrests made in soho. it was relatively quiet here. we were here just moments before the crowd showed up and it was very quiet. peaceful. and all of a sudden a group got here and police just rushed in. i just want you to hear here the protesters now chanting shame at the police. and the police are just lined up here as you see in their helmets. you know, there are -- it seems that police are trying to push the crowd back. but so far, you know, the chanting. here we see police pushing more people back. so, this is how it works. police will move in and tell them -- >> shimon, i hear you, i hear you. let's just watch the scene for a moment so people can absorb it for themselves. >> reporter: the police are pushing us back. >> want to take you back to portland, oregon, and check in on what has been a dramatic last hour or so there. there's a large demonstration in downtown portland, and police were being pelted with -- they said they were being pelted with objects, missiles, they said. and so they then fired off tear gas. a lot of people w

we're in soho, a high-end shopping area of new york city. could you see the stores behind me on main are boarding up again. these were boarded up last night and yet looters in the darkness broke through the wood, threw it on the ground and went into the stores and basically took all the merchandise that was inside. the same thing for chanel. we've been showing you the pictures of the chanel and jewelry thrown all over the cobblestones here in soho. they're reboarding up their stores as well. i want to show you video from a privately owned jewelry store that's just a block away from there. the owner, manager rather allowed us to go inside. i mean, the place was ransacked. it wasn't a smash-and-grab situation. the way these looters, it was almost organized. they broke into these businesses and even went into the back inventory areas of the businesses and took everything out as much as they could as fast as they could and that is repeated literally as almost every store in this area of this shopping district. as you said this wasn't just this a

but there isn't that masked him with mass gatherings at this hour that there was in soho.of hundreds of people. we haven't been seeing that. the streets haven't been emptied and what you do see is you seem to, three, four, five people still going from store to store kind of peaking around and dodging the police. some have stolen closed or stolen shoes. you know, this is a mess still because the fact of the matter is that the curfew was set 11:00 p.m. but we saw mayhem between the hours of eight and 11 and beyond that. and we sometimes can hear the scanner which is what emergency personnel used. it was intense, one intersection to the next to the next to the next in the middle of america's biggest city, trace. >> trace: bryan llenas, thank you. we will continue coverage now. it is curious because during the day most of the people take to the streets are largely peaceful but we haven't seen looting come of violence that spikes after sunset. the question this brings up is, what happens and how are people judging this. what are they looking at when they see the police officers

brynn gingras is live in the soho neighborhood with the breaking details. it sounds like an active night for law enforcement. >> reporter: it was. i mean, it's still active, alis alisyn. arrests are still happening as there's daylight right now. we're seeing so much damage caused by these looters. this is the store in the soho section of new york city. it's a high-end shopping center. i can tell you that the looters didn't discriminate which store they were going to. it was completely ransacked in there. further down, this store, chanel, they prepared for this. they put up wood. we've seen this all over. it didn't matter. the looters actually tore down the wood, smashed through the windows. we're going to go around the corner. there's a screen they were able to penetrate. if you look around this, this is incredible. all the wood taken off the chanel store. further down the glass was broken. around the corner, there are bags littered all over the sidewalk which was carried. high-end jewelry. there's shoes on the ground. you can hear the helicopter above me.
