A 27-year-old Black man was shot by an Atlanta officer while fleeing from a struggle at a Wendy’s drive-thru late Friday night and died after surgery at a local hospital, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. One officer was treated for an injury and discharged.

Rayshard Brooks had been asleep in his car in a Wendy’s drive-thru, causing other customers to drive around the car, the Bureau of Investigation said. Police were dispatched to Wendy’s around 10:30 p.m. and conducted a sobriety test on Brooks, who failed the test, according to the officials.

“During the arrest, the male subject resisted and a struggle ensued,” the Bureau of Investigation said. “The officer deployed a Taser. Witnesses report that during the struggle the male subject grabbed and was in possession of the Taser. It has also been reported that the male subject was shot by an officer in the struggle over the Taser.”

Georgia Bureau of Investigation Director Vic Reynolds said Saturday afternoon that the agency had gathered surveillance video from the Wendy’s, police bodycam video, and bystander video posted to social media. The agency had spoken with at least one witness, who corroborated the videos, Reynolds said.

Reynolds said Brooks had been under investigation by police for a suspected DUI. Reynolds said that, based on the videos, Brooks appeared to have a Taser in his hand as he ran from officers and when he was a “relatively short distance away” or “five, six, seven parking spaces,” Brooks turned around and pointed the Taser at the officers. That’s when one officer took out his weapon and fired it, Reynolds said.

“It does appear in the video that he is fleeing from the Atlanta police officers,” Reynolds said.

Reynolds said he not sure how many shots were fired. He did not comment on whether the officer’s use of force was appropriate.

The agency planned to make the video available to the public by Saturday night, Reynolds said.

“We have not digitally enhanced that video yet. We will,” Reynolds said.

[ATTACH=full]308094[/ATTACH]

Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms announced Saturday that police Chief Erika Shields is stepping down after an officer shot and killed a man during an arrest attempt the night before.
Bottoms said Shields made the decision to resign her top post, which the mayor accepted. The city will launch a national search for her replacement.
“Chief Erika Shields has been a solid member of APD for over two decades and has a deep and abiding love for the people of Atlanta. And because of her desire that Atlanta be a model of what meaningful reform should look like across this country, Chief Shields has offered to immediately step aside as police chief so that the city may move forward with urgency in rebuilding the trust so desperately needed throughout our community,” Bottoms said.

In a statement issued about an hour after the announcement, Shields said she supports the police department and mayor.

“I have faith in the mayor, and it is time for the city to move forward and build trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve,” Shields wrote.

Protesters gather on University Avenue in Atlanta on Saturday near the Wendy’s where Rayshard Brooks, a 27-year-old black man, was shot and killed by Atlanta police Friday evening during a struggle.

Do these people really need police?

I think these guys should do community policing.

A mongo criminal DUIs, analala kwa drive thru, anafunga njia mpaka watu wanarukia huko kando. Polisi wanaitwa labda wakifikiri ni mtu mgonjwa labda, wanapata is a mongo under intoxicants. And the mongo instead of submitting arrest, anaangusha polisi. Anapokonya polisi taser. Na anakimbia nayo!

Halafu mkuu wa polisi analazimishwa anajiuzulu!

Does that society deserve the police?

I’m also in support of defunding the police, let people do their own policing for a trial we see whether a civilized society can exist or life as we know it will collapse. I’m so tired of it all. We’re asking ourselves why the media is playing this card over and over again. The shootings, protests, the cries racism, all of it. Tumechoka.

ION, yesterday evening hubby and I went for a walk at the park and we noticed that whites were especially nice towards us. Saying hi, making unusual small talk and just affirming us with new eyes. It felt different. We wondered whether the whole BLM/George floyd thing going on played a role. hehe
