Black Lives Matter protesters shut down Carson Street in demonstration against police brutality
Black Lives Matter protesters took to the Legislature building in Carson City Saturday afternoon to protest police brutality.
As a part of their demonstrations they enacted a “lie-in” chanting “I can’t breathe,” the last words said by George Floyd, a black man killed by police in Minnesota.
Carson City Sheriff’s Officer deputies and Sheriff Ken Furlong blocked the street from motorists during the lie-in.
