BRUNSWICK, Georgia (KYMA, KECY)-The fatal shooting of a man recorded in February, is going to a grand jury in coastal Georgia, according to a district attorney.
CNN reports 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery was jogging in a neighborhood outside Brunswick on February 23 when a former police officer and his son chased him down, authorities said.
According to a police report, Gregory McMichael, one of the shooters later told officers that he thought Arbery looked like a person suspected in a series of recent break-ins in the area. After they chased down Arbery, McMichael told police, Arbery and McMichael's son Travis struggled over his son's shotgun.
McMichael said two shots were fired before Arbery fell to the street.
The video of the shooting, circulated social media on Tuesday. In the video, the recording has sound, but yelling in the video is unintelligible. It is not clear what happened immediately before or after the confrontation.
The video begins with a man in a white T-shirt jogging down the middle of street toward a pickup. One man is in the bed of the truck and the other is standing near the driver's side door.
As the man in the T-shirt approaches, he goes around the pickup on the right side, and just as he's passing the front of the vehicle, he makes a left and begins tussling with the man with the shotgun.
A shot goes off, and the two disappear off the left side of the screen as the man who was running appears to throw a punch. The man standing in the back of the truck takes out a handgun but doesn't fire, CNN reports.
No charges have been filed against the father and son involved in the incident.
