HOUSTON — Jack Yates High School Class of 1993 held a vigil and walk for George Floyd Saturday morning at MacGregor Park.
Dozens gathered in the middle of the park -- on foot and on motorcycles -- to honor their classmate who died in Minneapolis when an officer, identified as Derek Chauvin, kneeled on his neck for nearly 11 minutes in an attempt to detain him.
Those who attended wore Yates' school colors and shirts that read "I Can't Breathe," which are some of the last words Floyd said before he died.
Those unable to walk followed along in their vehicles.
