Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms announced on Saturday that the city's police chief had submitted her resignation just hours after the fatal shooting of a black man who struggled with police during a sobriety test.
With tensions already flaring, Saturday's shooting of Rayshard Brooks, 27, compounded high-profile cases of black men killed during police encounters.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation , which is investigating the shooting, said the deadly confrontation started with officers responding to a complaint that a man was sleeping in a car blocking the restaurant’s drive-thru lane. The GBI said Brooks failed a field sobriety test and then resisted officers’ attempts to arrest him.The GBI released security camera video of the shooting Saturday.
In a scathing statement, the NAACP accused the Atlanta Police Department of continuing to "terrorize protestors and murder unarmed Black bodies."
