A New York cop knelt on a black man's neck until he passed out as the victim's distraught dad begged the officer to stop, fearing his son 'was going to die just like George Floyd'. Shocking footage surfaced on social media Monday of an unnamed officer kneeling on the neck of Yugeshwar Gaindarpersaud, 31, during an arrest in Schenectady, New York, that morning. The cop looks up at him and shouts at him to 'go back inside now' and to 'back up.' When the cop tried to detain a male suspect, he fled on foot and a brief chase ensued, they said. A struggle then allegedly broke out and the cop lost his radio and had to ask witnesses to call for back-up.
