Eleven people have been arrested after a Montreal anti-racism protest held in solidarity with U.S. protests in support of George Floyd descended into violence Sunday. 
Floyd, who was black, died in Minneapolis on May 25 after a white police officer pressed his knee on Floyd’s neck for nine minutes. His death has sparked nightly protests in major U.S. cities.
