An official Nintendo store was damaged during a protest in Manhattan, New York.
The streets of America have been rioting for almost a week as Breonna Taylor, 26, from Louisville, Kentucky, and George Floyd, 46, from Minneapolis, Minnesota, were victims of brutal police violence.
These incidents repeatedly lead to riots in which people are injured and streets are devastated. Among other things, the Nintendo store in New York has now also been damaged.
The unrest in the USA continues
On a picture of the Twitter user Sarah Boxer you can see the police in front of the broken window of the store. Mario is lying on the floor between the broken pieces. She writes: “Somebody just broke a window in Rockefeller Center. The organizers ask the crowd to keep peaceful. They are trying to move towards Trump Tower, which is closely guarded by the police. “

Here’s the whole thing from a different perspective:
The whole thing happened on June 1st. On Monday evening, rioters damaged the Nintendo store along with other shops in the area. Further details about the incident are currently not known.
Most protests in the United States are reported to have proceeded without major unrest and the majority of protesters remain peaceful. Unfortunately, however, some are taking advantage of the unrest to loot.
And the situation remains tense. US President Donald Trump recently threatened to use the military if the situation did not calm down.
We’ll keep you up to date.
We have even more news, information and videos about “Nintendo” for you here.
We think that:
Let’s hope no one is injured again during the protests. The whole thing is really more than sad.
