MANHATTAN —
The young girl is weeping and terrified, surrounded by members of the New York Police Department, her hands cuffed behind her back while outraged protesters shout a mix of pleas and threats.
The chaotic scene was captured on a 21-second snippet of video that was deleted from Twitter about 10 minutes after being posted.
It was taken in Tribeca on Thursday evening during protests against police violence after George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis.
