Atlanta Police Department fires white cop who shot and killed black man RayshardBrooks in a Wendy's parking lot
Atlanta's police chief had also resigned after the Brooks was shot and killed, the city's mayor said."I do not believe that this was a justified use of deadly force and have called for the immediate termination of the officer," Bottoms said at a news conference.
"At that point, the Atlanta officer reaches down and retrieves his weapon from his holster, discharges it, strikes Mr Brooks there on the parking lot and he goes down," Reynolds said. He appears to grab for the Taser of one officer, who was using the device on Brooks' leg. After a few seconds, Brooks breaks free and begins to run. One officer then uses a Taser on him. The pair then run out of the frame of the video.
