Multiple protests held across metro Atlanta Sunday

ATLANTA — After a dramatic night in Atlanta that saw a Wendy’s go up in flames, more protests were scattered across the city on Sunday.

One group staged a ‘die-in’ in front of Atlanta Police Headquarters. During another protest at Piedmont Park, people were encouraged to bring musical instruments.

Tensions about police treatment of black people boiled over in Atlanta after a black man was killed by police Friday night.

Rayshard Brooks was shot by an Atlanta Police officer after a confrontation. The 27-year-old was a father of four.

Brooks death led to the resignation of Atlanta’s Police Chief, Erika Shields. The officer who killed Brooks was fired.
