The funeral for George Floyd, who died while being arrested in Minneapolis last week, will be held June 9 in Houston, a family attorney said.
A memorial service will be held in Minneapolis this Thursday from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., according to Ben Crump.
The funeral in Houston, where Floyd grew up, will be at 11 a.m. CT, Crump said at a news conference Monday.
Videos from the May 25 incident show police officer Derek Chauvin — since fired — pressing his knee of Floyd’s neck, and other officers kneeling on his back.
