Ahmaud Arbery: Third man charged over death of black jogger

U.S.  A motorist who shot dead an unarmed black man in the state of Georgia has been charged with murder.

  The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) said William Bryan Jr. was also charged Thursday with criminal attempts to make a false arrest.

  Ahmed Arbury, 25, was jogging after being shot during a father-son confrontation in Branswick on February 25.

  Reg 64-year-old Gregory McMassell and Tra 34-year-old son Travis were charged with murder in May.

  In the moments before the fatal confrontation, MM Camichels, who was white, armed with a pistol and shotgun, chased Mr. Arberry in a pickup truck in the Satila Shores neighborhood.

  Gregory McMishley told police he believed Mr Arbury met the suspect in a series of local break-ins.
  Mr Brian's 36-second video was leaked online on May 5, sparking a nationwide outcry that was quickly followed by murder charges.  It was filmed by Mr Brian from his vehicle while he was driving behind Mr Arbiri.

  The clip shows Mr Arbury running down a tree-lined street as McMaheals waits for him in his vehicle.

  A scuffle ensues and a small Mr McMahon is seen firing a gun at Mr Cory's arbor, which falls on the street, at the point Cory Range.

  The Arberry family welcomed Thursday's arrest, with his lawyer, Lee Merritt, saying the alleged involvement in Mr Bryan's murder was "clear to many people across the country and, after a thorough investigation, it was also clear to the GBI".

  Mr. Bryan is expected to be charged in the Glynn County Jail, where Mr. Comichels is also awaiting trial.

  Was William Bryan allegedly involved?

  Mr Brian was "hotly chasing" Mr Arbury, according to another of four lawyers seeking to re-use the case.

  It is also mentioned in the Glynn County Police report of the shooting, in which officers noted that Mr. Bryan made a failed attempt to block Mr. Arbury's route.

  However, Mr Bryan told a local TV station he had "nothing to do with it" and was in "complete shock".

  During the interview, he did not answer questions about why he was there or why he started recording, but his lawyer Kevin Goff said: "My client was responding to what he saw, someone from the community he knew.  It was not followed. It was identified by the vehicle. "

  His lawyer said in a statement Monday that Mr. Bryan has since taken a voluntary lie detector test - which he did not request for law enforcement.

  He added that Mr Bryan had been hiding with his fianc કારણે due to death threats and that Arbury family lawyers had accused him of inciting them.

  "Contrary to speculation, the polygraph examination confirms that on the day of the shooting on February 23, 2020, William 'Roddy' Brian could not have had a conversation with Gregory or Travis McMashel before the shooting.

  Using Mr Bryan's nickname, Mr Gaff said he had not had a conversation with William 'Roddy' Bryan that day before the shooting about criminal activity in the neighborhood.

  In a CNN interview, Mr. Bryan said he has been praying for the Arbury family and hopes his tape will help close.

  "If it weren't for the tape, we wouldn't know what happened," he said.  "I hope it will, in the end, bring justice to the family and peace in the family."

  Georgia law has no hate crime laws, but U.S.  The Justice Department said it is investigating the case to determine whether any federal hate crime charges are guaranteed.
