I know what you are talking about, but there have been so many police infiltrators of protests since then, that it's hard to recall the specific instance. It predates george floyd, and I think it was at the protest for Michael Brown when the police left him dying in the street for over an hour before even attempting to render aid, even stopping EMTs from attending him. It was one of the first big BLM protests that I remember.
