America: Now Atlanta police shoots black, speed rises, officer sacked
Atlanta, AP. Atlanta police said that on Sunday, the department fired an officer for shooting a black man, and another officer was posted on administrative duty instead. However, after Blackett’s death the city resurrected fierce protests and caused the police chief to resign. Body camera footage released early Sunday by Atlanta police showed 27-year-old Reyshard Brooks that he was well-off with the two white officers when they caught Wendy locking her drive-through lane and finding her sleeping alone in the car. Talked to and collaborated with. According to police, he was drunk. Which was to be investigated.
Brooks said that I know you’re just doing your job. Brooks told one of the officers for about 40 minutes (the time before being shot) when he agreed to a breath test. After taking the test, an officer tries to handcuff Brooks and he attempts to flee – resulting in a conflict that ended with his death on Friday.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Brooks snatched a Tasser gun from one of the officers and fled. The GBI released security camera footage from the restaurant in which Brooks went a short distance away from the officers to show the gun. The video shows the officer take out his gun and shoot at Brooks, where the man then falls to the ground. Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms announced the resignation of the chief of police on Saturday. Bottoms said, I don’t think this deadly force can be justified.
At the same time, the case of George Floyd’s death in police custody in the US was not even cold enough that the protests have started after the killing of another black Brooks by police in Atlanta. The police officer who shot Brooks has been dismissed after the Atlanta police chief has resigned. The gunman has been identified as white officer Garrett Rolfe. Devin Brasenen, another police officer accompanying him, has also been removed from duty.
