Demonstrators March Through Times Square to Protest Death of Daniel Prude

Demonstrators protested in New York City on Thursday, September 3, following the release of police body-camera footage showing the March 23 arrest of Daniel Prude in Rochester, New York, that led to his death.

Protesters gathered in Times Square Thursday night. This video shows marchers on West 46th Street chanting and beating a drum.

Prude’s death was ruled a homicide, caused by “complications of asphyxia in the setting of physical restraint," media reported.

Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren announced Thursday that the seven officers involved in Prude’s death had been suspended, local media reported.
