A man sacked as a police officer following the death of unarmed black man George Floyd in the US city of Minneapolis has been arrested, officials say.

Derek Chauvin is one of four police officers who were fired after Mr Floyd's death in custody on Monday.

There have been days of protests, looting and arson after an officer was filmed kneeling on George Floyd's neck.
Mr Chauvin has been charged with murder and manslaughter.

The case has added to US anger over police killings of black Americans.

On Thursday, during the third night of protests over Mr Floyd's death, a police station was set alight. A number of buildings have been burned, looted and vandalised in recent days, prompting the activation of the state's National Guard troops.

Earlier on Friday, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz said he expected "swift and fair" justice for Mr Floyd's death.

Hypocrite. Stick to your deluded radical right wing politics.
