Dozens of protesters waved signs and chanted slogans in front of the police station in Brooklyn Center, the suburb where Sunday's killing occurred. "The officer drew their handgun instead of their taser," said Brooklyn Center police chief Tim Gannon. Authorities in Minneapolis and surrounding suburbs including Brooklyn Center announced a curfew from 7:00 pm (0000 GMT) Monday until 6:00 am Tuesday. Chauvin's attorney claims Floyd's death was due to his consumption of the illegal drugs fentanyl and methamphetamine as well as underlying health conditions. "I see no evidence at all that a fentanyl overdose caused Mr Floyd's death," Rich said.
