   Minneapolis (CNN)Over 500 Minnesota National Guard soldiers   
   arrived in Minneapolis and surrounding areas as protests erupted   
   for a third night over the death of a black man while in police   
   custody.   
      
   Angry crowds have gathered in cities nationwide to demand   
   justice after the death of George Floyd following his arrest   
   Monday.   
      
   On Thursday, smoke and orange flames filled the night sky as   
   protesters breached the 3rd Precinct in Minneapolis and set it   
   ablaze. Others tossed fireworks toward the precinct, which is   
   closest to where Floyd was shown on video with an officer   
   kneeling on his neck before he died.   
      
   As protesters chanted Floyd's name and more flames engulfed   
   buildings through the night, the Minnesota National Guard   
   mobilized to several locations including banks, grocery stores   
   and pharmacies.   
      
   "Our mission is to protect life, preserve property and the right   
   to peacefully demonstrate," the Minnesota National Guard   
   tweeted. "A key objective is to ensure fire departments are able   
   to respond to calls."   
      
   While the fire burned at the precinct, city officials warned   
   that it may be in danger of exploding due to "unconfirmed   
   reports" of explosive materials in the building.   
      
   "If you are near the building, for your safety, PLEASE RETREAT   
   in the event the building explodes," a tweet on the city's   
   account said.   
      
   The Minneapolis Police Department said it had evacuated staff   
   from the precinct for safety reasons. Authorities had set up a   
   fence around it, but protesters pushed it over, officials said.   
      
   The Fire Department is working with the police and other   
   authorities to assess the situation, Fire Chief John Fruetel   
   told CNN.   
      
   Outrage grows to other cities   
      
   Angry crowds have gathered in cities nationwide to demand   
   justice after Floyd died following his arrest for allegedly   
   using a counterfeit bill.   
      
   The outrage grew after a video emerged showing a Minneapolis   
   officer kneeling on his neck during the arrest. Floyd was   
   unarmed and handcuffed, and cried that he couldn't breathe   
   before he died later.   
      
   Lesson to niggers, don't break the law.
