Four police officers in Minneapolis, Minnesota, were fired following Monday's arrest of an African American man who died after one white officer knelt on his neck.

A bystander captured the scene on video and posted it on social media, and it was quickly broadcast across the country.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey tweeted Tuesday that relieving the four officers of their jobs is "the right call."

"He should not have died. What we saw was horrible. Completely and utterly messed up. This man's life matters," the mayor said. "I believe what I saw and what I saw was wrong at every level. Being black in America should not be a death sentence."

Minneapolis police say the victim, George Floyd, resembled a suspect wanted in a forgery case,  and that officers acted after Floyd resisted arrest.
