Protesters march through Seattle during curfew

Demonstrators marched through Seattle on Monday night, protesting the killing of George Floyd, a black man who died when a white Minneapolis police officer pressed his knee on Floyd’s neck until he stopped breathing.

Earlier Monday, hundreds gathered outside City Hall to demonstrate before marching through Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood.

Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan announced the Northwest's largest city would again have a curfew Monday evening following days of protests that turned violent, with storefronts smashed and items stolen.

At a news conference, Durkan said the curfew would begin at 6 p.m. and last until 5 a.m. Bellevue, Washington, also said it would have a 5 p.m. curfew following vandalism and theft in that city's downtown Sunday.

Other cities in Washington, including Spokane, also issued curfews to try to contain protests.
