Protesters set fire Saturday to the Atlanta Wendys where, the night before, a black suspect was shot dead as he fired at two white cops with a stolen police Taser.
Angry crowds protesting the racially charged shooting of Rayshard Brooks, a 27-year-old father of four from Atlanta, also shut down an interstate highway.
Crowds of several hundred had gathered outside the fast-food restaurant all day Saturday, but began breaking windows of the establishment after sunset, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
A fire started inside at around 9:30 pm., according to the paper.
As smoke billowed from the restaurant, some protest organizers encouraged demonstrators to go home, but police moved in to make arrests, the outlet reported.
Brooks was fatally shot by an Atlanta police officer during a struggle after he failed a sobriety test in the Wendys parking lot.

Makes sense. It was the restaurants fault after all /s
“””’Angry crowds protesting the racially charged shooting of Rayshard Brooks””””””
Racially charged shooting? Drama queen much?
Who knew protesters were fire bugs,mask is off.
Morons. Low IQ morons. And why are they always fighting and resisting cops?
Whats their Beef?
The blm crowd will destroy things even when the shooting was justified. Message sent: let black criminals get away with whatever they choose to do.
Why are White Supremacists doing this?
Bet they won't do that again.
Idiots.
Democrats Burn Wendy’s
I wonder how many black lives worked at that restaurant.
You couldn’t get Flame Broiled Burgers at Wendy’s, until now.
P
doesnt make any difference. Only some black lives matter
Atlanta, the city too busy to hate but not too busy to burn and loot.
“Democrats Burn Wendys”
When will the Stupid Party get that?
The meme for this year is Democrats = Rioter Party
The meme from the Rats is Republicans = Racist Party
Which one do they think the electorate actually worries about?
This will be a regular thing when Obama’s Civilian Army replaces police forces
Someone reports McD’s ran out of Chicken McNuggets. The responders will show up, burn the restaurant and beat the manager to death
All of this could have been avoided if the police had not wasted 24 minutes of useless questioning of Brooks. Cops should have taken 5 minutes of questioning, sobriety tests and then arrested him for DUI.
Why does the media say the protesters burn down a Wendy’s?
Why don’t they say that arsonists or rioters burned down a Wendy’s?
