TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey’s capital city and Atlantic City had largely peaceful protests to the death of George Floyd during the day, but protests in both areas later devolved. Instances of window-smashing and stealing from stores into the night Sunday. Trenton put a curfew into place at about 10 p.m., while Atlantic City instituted an 8 p.m. curfew. Trenton Police Director Sheilah Coley said the the destruction would not bring back Floyd and would instead further hurt a city eager to attract businesses. Coley said she doesn’t have a number of people who were arrested. Trenton Mayor Reed Gusciora said there were no injuries.
