Protesters gather at City Hall for the third weekend

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Protests continue around the world this weekend including right here in the Port City.

Saturday, a few protesters were outside City Hall advocating for the Black Lives Matter movement.

This marked the third weekend of protests in downtown Wilmington.

Some drivers passing by honked their horns and held up their fists in solidarity.

These widespread and ongoing protests are in response to the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 25.
