The ongoing protests following the killing of George Floyd were caught up in violence again on Saturday, as police all over the country teargassed protestors, drove vehicles through crowds, opened fire with non-lethal rounds on journalists or people on their own property, and in at least one instance, pushed over an elderly man who was walking away with a cane. Here are some of the ways law enforcement officers escalated the national unrest.

Police just raided the gas station we were sheltering at. After shouting press multiple times and raising my press card in the air, I was thrown to the ground. Then another cop came up and peppered sprayed me in the face while I was being held down. pic.twitter.com/23EkZIMAFC

This is @RyanFaircloth, a reporter with the @StarTribune. He says he was trying to get home when police shot out his window.

He is bleeding but seems ok. pic.twitter.com/LYH0h7c4hf

Cops didn’t like me filming the burning car so they came at me with batons. Hitting my bike.
