A judge on Thursday dismissed a third-degree murder charge against Derek Chauvin, one of four former Minneapolis police officers charged in the death of George Floyd.

Chauvin, who was released from custody this month on $1 million bond, will still face charges of second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, Hennepin County Judge Peter A. Cahill ruled.

Video shows Chauvin pressing his knee onto Floydโ€™s neck for almost nine minutes while he is handcuffed and yelling that he canโ€™t breathe.

Cahill also upheld the charges of aiding and abetting second-degree murder and aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter against the officers โ€“ Tou Thao, Thomas K. Lane and J. Alexander Kueng โ€“ who were present at the time of the video.
