Protester loses an eye after being hit by police tear gas canister

A man protesting the brutal death of George Floyd has lost an eye after being struck by a police tear gas cannister.




 

George Floyd, 46, died after a police officer pressed his knee into his neck for eight minutes despite saying 'I can't breathe'. His death has led to outrage and protests around the world.
Balin Brake, 21, was among demonstrators in the streets in Fort Wayne, Indiana, on Saturday when he was hit in the face and said he immediately knew his eye was "done for".
Mr Brake said he couldn't see from his eye that had been hit as blood leaked out of it.
