      The jury came back with its verdict after about 10 hours of deliberations over two days. Derek Chauvin's bail was immediately revoked and he was led away with his hands cuffed behind his back. Sentencing will be in two months.

          A vigil gave way to celebration at the Minneapolis intersection where George Floyd died after a jury convicted former police Officer Derek Chauvin. But the elation was tinged with deep awareness of the progress left to be made.
