Atlanta police officer Devin Brosnan, one of the two officers involved in the fatal shooting of Rayshard Brooks, suffered a concussion and other injuries during the altercation with the 27-year-old, the officer’s attorney revealed during a Wednesday discussion with CNN’s Chris Cuomo.
“Devin ends up taking out his Taser and yelling at him to ‘stop fighting, stop fighting,’” said Don Samuel, an attorney for Brosnan. “Mr. Brooks grabbed the Taser from him and shoots … Devin gets shot with the Taser.”
At that point, Brosnan fell over, landed on the pavement, and got a concussion, Samuel explained, adding that prosecutors in the case did not examine the medical records of the officer.
Brosnan and former officer Garrett Rolfe responded to incident in a Wendy’s parking lot on Friday, leading to the deadly altercation with Brooks, who resisted arrest after failing a field sobriety test, leading to a struggle with both officers. During the altercation, Brooks obtained an officer’s taser and attempted to flee the scene, which led to a chase.

True. There was a time when some truth was in the spin. That all changed with obama. Now truth is the direct opposite of what they say.
is under investigation for misusing non-profit funds that ended up in his own account.

Their crime was Policing While White.
He was courteous and cooperative so that he could get close enough to grab the officer’s weapon.
A career criminal, Rayshard Brooks used deception to get the upper hand.
“But the DA says that Brooks was courteous and cooperative, so how could this be possible?”
The DA forgot to mention Brooks was also trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, kind, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent!
We understood the first time.
Hmmmm. Just so we’re clear, was it an actual concussion or did he ALLEGEDLY suffer a concussion. After the deceased ALLEGEDLY taserd him.
everything you say is correct But as God is my witness what I posted is how a Reuters article started. Or one of those pieces of filth
Umm...he’s White.
“They have ceased being Americans”
Yeah, back during the Vietnam War.
