You act like the officer Who was surrounded by screaming people knew that Floy was dead.
In reality, he wasn't pronounced dead until much later...
But with your logic, it's the officer's fault any time a suspect is injured, regardless of the suspects actions...
I mean, it was the cop who initiated the interaction, right?

Chauvin was told at least once if not twice that Floyd had no pulse. With one knee on Floyd's neck and another on his back he was close enough to notice the man was no longer breathing.
No movement for several minutes, no signs of breathing, no pulse, and CPR in the ambulance... sure, the official determination of death did not occur until much later.
Surrounded? Don't think so. Screaming? Yeah, screaming that the man was dying or already dead.
Actually, it was a different cop who initiated the interaction, Chauvin came along later.
