MINNEAPOLIS — Former Minneapolis police Officer J. Alexander Kueng told a federal jury Wednesday he'd never encountered such a struggle as when he tried to push George Floyd into a squad car on May 25, 2020.
Floyd pushed back, slamming his own face onto plexiglass that sectioned the back of the squad car, Kueng testified in St. Paul's federal courthouse, offering his public recounting of the events of that day for the first time.
"His behavior just went to extreme measures," said Kueng. "He started shaking very violently."
