As the killing of a 27-year-old black man in an encounter with two white officers late Friday rekindled fiery protests in Atlanta, and prompted the police chief’s resignation, the medical examiner found Rayshard Brooks suffered two gunshot wounds to the back and his death has been ruled a homicide.
The office of Fulton County Medical Examiner performed an autopsy on Brooks on Sunday, and said that the gunshot wounds to the back created organ failure because of blood loss.

Pretty cowardly.
The police better get their sh@t in order, I guess this cop has been fired.
He was then shot in the back

He was driving drunk enough to fall asleep at the wheel and when people intervened he was unresponsive. So they called the cops.
He then failed a sobriety test.
He then resisted arrest.
He then assualted two officers
He then stole a taser
He then assaulted an officer with the taser punch to the face.
He then made an attempt to flee
He then turned around AND SHOT ( NOT ATTEMPTED to shoot) an officer with the taser. If you don't see that you arent watching the right videos with audio.
He was then shot in the back
The guy was dangerous and it was up to the cops discretion how to act. Considering he was leaking still from the taser strike with force to the face, i agree with the cop
All the other # aside, the guy stole a weapon and used it on a cop. He was an imminent danger to the public. It doesn't matter how lethal the weapon is, it was a weapon and it was used.
He played a stupid game and now he's in a morgue.
This is just more propaganda being pushed by african american's and white racist liberal's democrat slave owners
btw. Tasers kill people too. Not just the electricity, the damage from falling too. If this was a pencil being used on an officer this would have been justified but because it was a taser people just brain fart.

Well according to the lawyer for the family, Seattle police when in a court case will state that a taser is not a lethal weapon. When someone sues the cops thats what they say in court.
So they cant have it both ways. They cannot justify killing a man who almost, almost, points a taser at them.
