'This has to be a fundamental rethinking' of police tactics

Governor Cuomo says that little has changed since Rodney King was a victim of police brutality in 1991 or since Dr Martin Luther King Jr was killed in 1968.

Anti-racism demonstrations continue throughout the United States following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody on May 25.

Friends and family have been remembering Mr Floyd at his funeral service in Houston on Tuesday.
