The young daughter of George Floyd, the 46-year-old African American man who was killed by a white Minneapolis police officer, with the killing captured in a now viral video taken by a witness, has spoken out for the first time.
Six-year-old Gianna Floyd told Good Morning America on Tuesday “that [she] miss[ed] him”, describing her father as a fun man who often played with her.
“He would put her on his shoulders,” Roxie Washington, her mother, had said on Good Morning America on Monday. “She didn’t have to play with nobody else because daddy was gonna play all day long.”Advertisement
