Aformer coworker of George Floyd and former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin has come forward to claim that the pair clashed while they worked together at a nightclub.

David Pinney, who also worked at the El Nuevo Rodeo club in Minneapolis, told CBS Evening News that Chauvin and the man he is accused of murdering "bumped heads" while on shifts together.

"It has a lot to do with Derek being extremely aggressive within the club with some of the patrons, which was an issue," Pinney said.

Pinney added that he is sure that Chauvin would have recognized Floyd...n"He knew him," "I would say pretty well."

Last month, Maya Santamaria, the owner of the since burned down club, revealed that Chauvin and Floyd had worked together.

She said that Chauvin had worked for 17 years as an off-duty officer at the club, while Floyd had been employed as security inside the venue for a year.
