Fast food restaurant set on fire during protests
The Wendy's on University Avenue was the scene of the Rayshard Brooks killing
At least 36 arrests were made during Saturday night's protests, police said. The arson suspect was seen wearing black clothing and a face covering.
The suspect appeared to be wearing some sort of backpack around their chest area and a hat.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is investigating the shooting. GBI officials said the deadly incident began Friday night with officers responding to a complaint that a man was sleeping in a car blocking the restaurant's drive-thru lane in southwest Atlanta. Brooks then failed a field sobriety test and resisted while officers attempted to arrest him, according to the GBI.
GBI Director Vic Reynolds said Brooks grabbed a stun gun from an officer and appeared to point it at the officer as he ran away. The officer then reached for his gun and fire an estimated three shots, Reynolds said.
