Three weeks after the death of George Floyd, another black man has been killed at the hands of police in the United States, sparking nationwide outrage.

Rayshard Brooks died after being shot twice in the back by an officer outside a Wendy's restaurant in Atlanta.

The shooting was ruled a homicide and the officer in question has been fired, with the other officer at the scene being placed on administrative duty. The Atlanta Police Chief has also resigned.
