>>> THIS IS A SPECIAL REPORT. >>> TAKING NEWS, REPORTS OF A SHOOTING INCIDENT IN MINNEAPOLIS. THERE IS AN ACTIVE POLICE SITUATION, THE SHOOTER IS CONTAINED, THERE IS NO ACTIVE THREAT TO THE COMMUNITY. NO OFFICIAL WORD YET ON HOW MANY VICTIMS. GOVERNOR TIM WALZ HAS BEEN BRIEFED  ON THE SITUATION AND HE IS PRAYING FOR THE KIDS IN SCHOOL. LET'S BRING IN ADRIAN, YOU AND I HAVE BOTH WORKED IN MINNEAPOLIS, IT IS MY HOMETOWN, THE CHURCH IS WELL KNOWN IN SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS, IT IS NOT JUST A CHURCH, IT IS A PRE-K THROUGH EIGHT SCHOOL, WHAT ARE WE LEARNING RIGHT NOW? >> YOU KNOW WHAT THE FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL IS LIKE FOR MANY STUDENTS, NOT ROLLING IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD BUT ACROSS THE COUNTRY, NOW STUDENTS AT ENUNCIATION CHURCH WILL HAVE THIS AS THEIR FIRST WEEK MEMORY. WE ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM MINNEAPOLIS POLICE. WE DO NOT KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE INJURED, WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT LED TO THIS. THE INITIAL REPORT STARTED COMING IN AROUND 8:00 THIS MORNING AND I SPOKE WITH A SOURCE AT THE HENNEPIN COUNTY MEDICAL CENTER, THAT IS THE LEVEL ONE TRAUMA HOSPITAL IN THE CITY AND THEY ARE QUITE BUSY, THEY ARE DEALING WITH, QUOTE, A MASS CASUALTY SITUATION, CALLING THIS A CRISIS. WE ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM OFFICIAL WORD FROM MINNEAPOLIS POLICE. THE LAST 24 HOURS HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY VIOLENT FOR OFFICERS AND INVESTIGATORS IN MINNEAPOLIS , BEFORE THIS ACTIVE SHOOTER INCIDENT THEY WERE INVESTIGATING THREE SEPARATE SHOOTINGS WITHIN A 24-HOUR TIME SPAN, INCLUDING A MASS SHOOTING THAT INJURED SIX PEOPLE AND ONE PERSON DIED IN THAT SHOOTING, SO NOW THESE OFFICERS ARE STRETCHED THIN, ONCE AGAIN, AS THEY ARE TRYING TO DETERMINE WHAT HAPPENED HERE, BUT THE LATEST INFORMATION WE RECEIVED FROM THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS IS THAT THERE IS AN ACTIVE POLICE SITUTUATION AT ANNUNCIATION CHURCH , AS WE HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU THROUGHOUT THE MORNING IS CONNECTED TO A SCHOOL, FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS THERE. THERE IS NO ACTIVE THREAT TO THE COMMUNITY AT THIS TIME. THE SHOOTER IS CONTAINED. WE ARE WAITING TO HEAR WHO THE SHOOTER WAS, WHY THE SHOOTER WAS THERE, AND WHY THAT PERSON TARGETED THE SCHOOL IN SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS. >> WHAT WE ALSO KNOW, ACCORDING TO THE SCHOOL WEBSITE, CLASSES STARTED ON MONDAY AND ON THE SCHEDULE WAS 8:15 A.M. WEDNESDAY MORNING ALL-SCHOOL MASS, THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN TAKING PLACE AT THE TIME OF THE SHOOTING WAS FIRST REPORTED. WE ARE EXPECTING TO HEAR MORE FROM MINNEAPOLIS STATE OFFICIALS , THERE IS MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT MAY HAVE HAPPENED AT ANNUNCIATION CHURCH  IN MINNEAPOLIS AS THE INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING. LET'S BRING IN A CONTRIBUTOR, TELL US WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW, ESPECIALLY WITH THE WORD THAT THERE IS NO ACTIVE THREAT TO THE COMMUNITY AT THIS TIME, AND THAT THE SHOOTER IS CONTAINED. WHAT IS THE FOCUS FOR MINNEAPOLIS STATE POLICE, AND THE BUREAU OF CRIMINAL APPREHENSION? >> Reporter: LET'S BREAK THIS DOWN INTO COMPONENTS, WE KNOW THE SHOOTER IS CONTAINED, WHEN YOU HEAR THAT, YOU WANT TO SAY, YOU GET ACTIVE SHOOTING SCENARIOS WHERE THE SHOOTER TAKES HIS OWN LIFE. WAS IT SOMEONE PHYSICALLY AT THE SCHOOL, OR WAS IT POLICE? HOW DID, WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ARE THE THREE LANES. SECURE THE ENVIRONMENT. THE NEXT MOST IMPORTANT THING OBVIOUSLY ARE THE INJURED. AS YOU SAY, WE ARE HEARING MASS CASUALTY. GOING TO A TRAUMA ONE HOSPITAL, SOMETHING YOU MENTIONED BEFORE, WE DID THAT IN THE U.S. SECRET SERVICE AS WELL. TRAUMA ONE MEANS IT'S A HOSPITAL THAT CAN DEAL WITH THE MOST TRAUMA, GUNSHOT WOUNDS. THAT'S ABSOLUTELY WHERE YOU WANT TO GO WHEN YOU HAVE A SCENARIO LIKE THIS. THEY HAVE THE TOOLS AND THE SKILLS TO SAVE LIVES. THAT'S GOING TO BE THE NEXT MOST IMPORTANT THING HAPPENING. THEN THE LEVEL OF INVESTIGATION. ONCE ALL THIS GETS SORTED OUT -- THESE ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS. SHOOTER AND VICTIMS. YOU LOOK NOW AT THE INVESTIGATION. YOU MENTIONED THE MASS. 8:15 A.M. MASS. THE INDIVIDUAL COMMITTED THIS. DID THEY TARGET THAT MASS? WHERE DID THE SHOOTING TAKE PLACE, IN THE SCHOOL OR IN THE CHURCH? YOU WILL WANT TO LOOK AT, WAS THE SHOOTER TIED TO THE SCHOOL OR THE CHURCH IN SOME WAY? WAS THERE A CONNECTION? SOMETIMES, NOT ALL, BUT SOMETIMES WE MAY SEE A CONNECTION WITH THE SHOOTER TO THE LOCATION THAT THEY DECIDE TO TAKE ACTION. YOU ARE GOING TO LOOK AT THOSE DIFFERENT THINGS. ANOTHER THING, DID THEY COMMUNICATE THIS? WE DO OFTEN SEE THAT IN THESE ACTIVE SHOOTER SCENARIOS, DID THEY COMMUNICATE THIS, POST THIS, TELL ANYBODY? ONE COMMON DENOMINATOR WHEN YOU SEE THESE SHOOTINGS, THEY WILL COMMUNICATE IT IN SOME WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. WHAT WAS THE GOAL? IT'S HEARTBREAKING. THREE THROUGH EIGHTH GRADE, YOUNG CHILDREN. A TERRIFYING SCENARIO THE FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL. EVEN IF YOU LOOK AT REPORTING FOR THIS WEEK, THERE WERE COLLEGE CAMPUSES THAT DEALT WITH CALLS, ACTIVE SHOOTER CALLS. THE MAJORITY OF THOSE DID TURN OUT TO BE SWATTING CALLS. THEY TURNED OUT TO BE FALSE. YOU HAD MULTIPLE SCHOOLS GOING INTO LOCKDOWN. WE'RE SEEING SOMETHING REALLY SIGNIFICANT HAPPENING. ACTIVE SHOOTING SCENARIOS AND THEN ALSO THESE FALSE SCENARIOS AT THESE SCHOOLS. TERRIFYING. >> AS THE SCHOOL YEAR IS GETTING STARTED FOR SO MANY. MOST IN MINNESOTA IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS DON'T BEGIN UNTIL THE DAY AFTER LABOR DAY. SOME OF THE PRIVATE SCHOOLS, INCLUDING ENUNCIATION, STARTING EARLIER THIS WEEK. EVY, ADRIAN MENTIONED THIS HAS BEEN AN ESPECIALLY VIOLENT LAST 24 HOURS IN MINCE, INCLUDING ANOTHER SHOOTING IN ANOTHER PART OF SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS YESTEAY AFTERNN, SEVEN PEOPLE SHOT, ONE KILLED, NO SUSPECT THERE. WILL POLICE LOOK TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY LINK BETWEEN THESE SHOOTINGS? >> I DON'T KNOW. WHEN YOU LOOK AT VIOLENT CRIME ON THE STREET, IT'S DIFFERENT THAN VIOLENT CRIME LIKE THIS. WE'RE LOOKING AT TWO VERY DIFFERENT SCENARIOS. I IMMEDIATELY DON'T THINK IN MY HEAD THEY'RE CONNECTED. I'M NOT SAYING THAT THEY'RE NOT. IT DEPENDS WHAT KIND OF SHOOTINGS THOSE WERE. WERE THEY ON -- ALTERCATIONS ON THE STREET? WHERE DID THEY TAKE PLACE? THIS IS DIFFERENT. THIS IS I'M GOING TO A SPECIFIC PLACE, A SCHOOL, A PLACE OF WORSHIP WITH CHILDREN TO CONDUCT A MASS SHOOTING. TO ME, THOSE ARE TWO VERY DIFFERENT ELEMENTS. VIOLENT CRIME, ALTHOUGH THIS IS VIOLENT CRCRIME, BUTIOLENT CRIME AS YOU TALK WITHIN THE 24 HOURS IN THE CITY IN THAT AREA IS DIFFERENT THAN SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO SOMEONE LIKE ME. WE CAN'T SAY THEY'RE NOT CONNECTED. THIS IS SOMEONE, DID THEY PLAN IT? DID THEY DO RECONNAISSANCECE? THEIR WEAPON. THAT'S THE OTHER THING, LAW ENFORCEMENT WILL LOOK AT THE WEAPON. WAS IT LEGALLY PURCHASED? HOW DID THEY GET IT? HOW LONG DID THEY HAVE IT? THEY WILL GO THROUGH THEIR DEVICES. DID THEY RESEARCH THIS? HOW LONG DID THEY RESEARCH THIS? HOW LONG DID THEY PLAN THIS OUT? HOW DID THEY KNOW ABOUT THE 8:15 MASS? ALL THESE THINGS. FROM THE POINT I'M AT NOW, I DON'T SEE THEM AS CONNECTED. AGAIN, AS WE GET MORE INFORMATION, THAT MAY REVEAL DIFFERENT -- A DIFFERENT SIGNIFICANCE. >> EVY, THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE WANT TO BRING IN SPECIAL AGENT IN CHARGE JIM KAVANAUGH. WE ARE GETTING WORD THAT A NEWS CONFERCE WILL TAKE PLACE SCHEDULED FOR TEN MINUTES FROM NOW WITH AN UPDATE ON PATIENTS AFTER THIS SHOOTING. THE MEDICAL CENTER IS A LEVEL ONE TRAUMA CENTER THERE IN MINNEAPOLIS. JIM, WE HAVE A MINUTE LEFT HERE. TELL US, WHAT IS THE INVESTIGATION? WHAT ARE POLICE FOCUSED ON AT THIS MOMENT? >> THEY ARE FOCUSED ON THE VICTIMS, THE FAMILY REUNIFICATION CENTER, MAKING SURE THEY ARE NOTIFIED QUICKLY, WHAT THE SITUATION IS WITH THE FAMILIES. THEY REALLY NEED TO BE FOCUSED ON GETTING WORD OUT TO THE COMMUNITY. THEY P OUT WORD THAT THE SHOOTER IS CONTAINED, MAYBE DECEASED. THEY NEED TO SPEAK MORE CLEARLY. THEY DID GOOD ON THAT. THEY NEED TO GET OUT THERE, BE THE FACE, BE THE CHIEF, REASSURE THE COMMUNITY. THIS CAN BE A DEVASTATING DAY FOR MINNEAPOLIS. A RIFLE AROUND CHILDREN. SOME EARLY REPORTS SAID IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN THE STREET. WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE. >> THAT WILL BE ONE OF THE PRIMARY QUESTIONS WE HOPE TO GET ANSWERED FROM CITY OFFICIALS IS EXACTLY WHERE THIS SHOOTING TOOK PLACE AND ALSO THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS SAYING IT HAS SET UP A REUNIFICATION ZONE NEARBY THE SCENE OF THE INCIDENT. NO ACTIVE THREAT TO THE COMMUNITY AT THIS TIME. THE SHOOTER IS CONTAINED AT THIS TIME. WE NOW CAN CONFIRM THE GUNMAN DID DIE FROM A SELF-INFLICTED GUNSHOT WOUND. WE WILL BE BACK FOR THE HOSPITAL NEWS CONFERENCE AND AS NEWS WARRANTS. THIS CONCLUDES OUR NBC NEWS SPECIAL REPORT. MORE AHEAD ON OUR STREAMING NETWORK NBC NEWS NOW AND ONLINE AT NBCNEWS.COM.

Ben Crump, the attorney for the family, said that "The only overdose that killed George Floyd was an an overdose of excessive force and racism by the Minneapolis Police Department."


brothers, cousins and other members of George Floyd's family stood with their team of attorneys after the hearing, and we heard so many lives about my brother George. Florida attorney Ben Crump disputed what the defense said about his death in court. The only overdose that killed George Florida was the overdose of excessive force in racism, part of Minnesota Minneapolis Police Department. And he said, the world watched. What happened? Who are you gonna believe your eyes are these killer cart? The family shared the George they knew. Let me tell you, he's a uncle. He's a father.
