-- a 25-year-old black man out for a jog when he was chased and killed -- was caught on video, prompting a call for a grand jury to review the case.
Arbery's death is being referred to as a modern-day lynching, as he was unarmed when he was gunned down in Brunswick, GA on February 23 by a white citizen named... who has not been arrested or charged. He also happens to be the son of a former district attorney investigator. As you can see in the video, Arbery was jogging when he was stopped by McMichael and his father in a white pickup truck. McMichael was armed with a shotgun. Arbery appears to attempt to run around the truck before he and McMichael start grappling.
After at least 2 shots, the men continued struggling over the gun ... until Arbery stumbles away, shot in the mid-section, and then collapses to the ground. He was later pronounced dead. McMichael has not been charged in the shooting ... reportedly because he and his father, who was in the back of the truck, claim they were trying to make a citizen's arrest. They claim Ahmaud fit the description of a suspect in a string of recent break-ins in the area.has decided the case"should be presented to the grand jury of Glynn County for consideration of criminal charges against those involved in the death of Mr. Arbery.
Why was this horrible incident caught on video? Were they part of it? If not why didn’t they put a stop to it.
Trump's hillbilly posse. Disgusting
This is absolutely ridiculous. I feel for his family STR0. Those men need to be brought to justice. What a joke! No place for racism.
JusticeForAhmaudArbery NOW
This CAN NOT be allowed. This has to STOP. We cannot allow murder because some are ignorant enough to think anything that’s Not white isn’t worthy of life. This is just never ok. They need to be prosecuted immediately. Outrageous beyond where we should have evolved in 2020.
This is disgusting. Even IF he did it and even IF he was trying to run, the law states you can only citizens arrest in GA if the crime is done in front of you. This is straight murder. These dudes should be charge and sentenced for murder. Period.
I'm disturbed if you are allowed to make a citizens arrest with a fucking gun and shoot them to death, just because he fit a description. They are not officers nor have the qualifications to gun someone down.
The price we pay in America for being born black.
Not in jail sounds about WHItE
How is this even up for discussion? He was unarmed. Despite if he looked like someone that was wanted that’s why you call the police and let them handle it. This was clearly murder.
This makes me sick to my stomach! I hope they’ll be brought to justice!!
America was NEVER great. Idc what anyone says. This is exactly the shit Kaepernick knelt for and y’all wanna claim he was disrespectful. Y’all disrespect us everyday with this BULLSHIT. It’s hard being a black person in America when you still have “sundown towns” here. WAKE UP
If your unarmed and trying to get my gun, uhhh your getting shot!!!
america is filled with self righteous white people who can’t seem to mind their own business..
At least on twitter you don't have all the rasist comments. On TMZ it's noting but pure rasism. How about y'all delete those comments off your website 🤣
If these crackers don't go to jail they killed and unarmed black man people do not vote until justice is served if that was two black men that killed a whit guy jogging they would be locked up already
Yeah, I had a bad dream about something like this happening to me last night after seeing that horrible video yesterday. Just brutal.
Anyone think it’s weird that they are just randomly recording the exact moment where this happens?
This young man deserves justice for they did to him.
We need to find these two in Georgia. Anybody get their license plate?
How are they not in prison? That’s murder.
Wtf.... this is horrifying, both those men deserve to rot in jail
Them Americans think their guns are the only way to solve problems. Way taking the easy way out. Just get out of America lol
There’s no possible way we can allow these pieces of garbage to get away with this!!!! HOW are they not in Jail!?!?
Give it a week before you jump on your opinion. These things always appear to be bad until the truth comes out. The media are the enemy of the people and will go one sided at first to stir up hate
Amerikkka
America is fckn scary
Wish I could share this on Facebook won’t let it go through I’m so sorry to his family these two white murderers got to get life in prison 😭
You got to be kidding that’s cold blooded murder oh my god no arrests the police hiding their dirt god knows how many black people have been murdered in this country 😭😭😭😭😭family got to demand arrest devastating to see him gunned down 😭
America is a sick country.
Times are changing and these men and men like them are scared to death. Always thinking something is out to get them. Looks like satan already got them also people like these are going to force gun control upon an already unhinged society. My heart goes out the family.
a modern-day lynching
The person filming saw this coming I don't get..
How does this happen in 2020? This isn’t the 60’s! How does a man feel empowered to end the life of another human being? How is it a white man is free to kill a man of color? How do we not see that this affects us all?
Definitely a calculated ambush by the whites
Google it. It says he was a jogger. But because we live in America, everybody in these comments assuming he was a robber. This country disgusts me.
ATMBigDawgEv No, video shows a hate crime murder of two white men who slained a black man jogging..🙄
I will not presume to know what happened before the video and all of that, however, what I do know is that repeatedly charging someone with a shotgun is not the best life choice.
You clearly can see he’s jogging! If a black person had murder a white person and it was caught on video they would be arrested. So what’s with the double standard. All this proves is that white people can get away with murder
Black ppl are very aggressive and dangerous the cop just protected himself
I have never in my life felt the need to make a citizen's arrest. These yahoos need to go down.
Where is JZ?!?! Didn’t he receive 100 mill from the NFL in support of criminal justice reform efforts 🙄👌🏾
WTF!! Fucking red necks!
The video is missing the most important part.
Nothing is going to happen. Carry on folks! 😔
WTF? 🤦🏽♂️
They’re rednecks, what did you expect? It’s what they do....
Why is a civilian murder tmz news? We gonna do this with every murder?
This is ridiculous! They need to go to Jail Asap
Those guys need to be shot as well. I am sorry this country needs an eye for an eye law.
OMG AhmadArbery you didn’t deserve this.... JusticeForAhmaudArbery 💔 🤦🏾♀️
This is murder. PERIOD.
Racist Cowards only do things like this.. it’s a shame that this happen to that man.. This won’t be tolerated in Newark NJ
Welcome to Southern Hospirality ! 👀
WTH is going on!
this is Florida, just as bad if you were in the state of Mississippi. HardPassOnFlorida
i cant like a tweet like this...🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LET WHITE PEOPLE BE VIGILANTES HOPE THESE HONKIES GET THE CHAIR
A shot gun? Who drives around with a loaded shot gun? A jogger? ?Who shoots a jogger in broad daylight? No charges Something doesn’t sound right.
I am so sick and tired of this BS. and to this day they still keep getting away with it.for all you folks who keep making excuses for these people,you can go to hell. there is no excuse for this blatant racism.
Nope get your conceal weapons permit!!! Stop committing dumb Felonies and get your citizen swag on - they out there trying to kill you! Onguard aim-Breathe-pull
They should both be hung by the neck until dead.
I’m a legal gun owner and this is plain murderer. No innocent man should be chased around like this and shot. You call the cops if needed but this is ridiculous and that man deserves justice. Those fools need to be in jail.
Why does it not surprise Me , a redneck carrying his gun and killing a Black Man . I can’t stand these RACIST STATES where maybe a few are with good morals and the rest are all DEVIL SEEDS Born . If it was the other way around uuuuuuufffffff
Legal murder on brown folks is the 🇺🇸 way though. I see nothing that this system of tolerance and behind doors hate for 600 years would deem wrong there. Behind closed doors, the way this stuff keeps happening, I wonder if private medals are given to creeps like this.
So they just so happened to find a man jogging down the street that met a description of a thief in the area Oh and they were armed and ready? When does a citizen's arrest involve multiple guns?
The realAmerica!:(
Really getting tired of Georgia, get your shit together. This is really really horrible, I wasn’t sure I could be shocked by anything anymore, it’s disgusting & heartbreaking. I’m sick of guns too, really really sick of them. America is totally f’d up and I’m sick of that too 🎤
Definition of a**holes, regardless of whether he was jogging or whatever. And yet another example of how someone with a gun all of a sudden grows a pair and how guns are a joke of a right leading to needless death.
Let’s be honest if you were a burglar and you were running away would you even stay on the street most likely run into the woods maybe? These guys executed him! Death penalty!!
Damn they goin to jail for a long long time
Caught on surveillance video breaking into law abiding tax paying citizens homes!? Really? Bet he won't be doing that anymore
Im glad this wasn't police related for once.......
The fucking south.
Horrible it's horrible! Whose going to jail? Because someone should!
Still no justice Why aren't they in jail Wtf wrong with the justice system You know who did it arrest them It's not the hard Fucking idiots 🤬🤬🤬🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽
Comment ça sa tire sur des gens normal wsh c'est quoi ce pays de fdp srx
This is what George Zimmerman got away with, and this was in broad daylight. Vigilante racists looking for a reason to pull the trigger.
Video doesn't show the whole story...bottom line! Right away it's the crackers fault, story said a bunch of break-ins around the neighborhood... maybe him, maybe not.. plus the trigger was pulled after getting clocked in the face
People really think they’re doing good in this world; justifying their actions with words like “suspect”, “citizens arrest” etc. At the end of the day, you just wiped out someone’s whole existence. Over a moment that could’ve been easily avoided. RIP brother
There Goes TMZ stoking the racial fires again, insinuating more black men are killed by cops than white men & hoping guilable viewers will become hysterical. Here are the facts:
Wow............
I feel deeply sorry for African Americans... You can be minding your own business, doing normal daily activities and still get murdered by white police officers for no reason cause you look like a 'suspect'.
😠😠🤬🤬🤬
I made the mistake of reading the comments under the video on the link. That's some vile, and openly racist keyboard strong men there. It is depressing.
How the fuck is that not man slaughter ? How ? Joke. This is a joke. What is wrong with the justice system and the world we live in.
There is absolutely no excuse for this happening! The people that did this should just be handed over to the family!
That my friends is what we call murder. No reason to stop him. No reason to shoot him. The pig who shot Ahmaud gets murder and his scumbag dad gets accomplice to murder. They sat there and waited to kill him. It was premeditated.
How the fuck did this happen in February and these muthafuckas haven't been arrested?!!!
That’s bull they shot that man for nothing. That’s why these young black boys are running around with guns so they make sure they don’t get kill for nothing !
RIP AhmaudArbery. Prayers going up for him and his family. Nothing justifies hunting an unarmed man down and killing him like an animal.
I'll say it 'What the Whole Story' 👀 beginning story my n*gga 'Ran-up' to them.. Fyi Run Up & get Done Up..maybe why NO Charges in GA in 2020 after we had a Black President & got NAACP🙈🙉🙊
How come the family of this boy hasn't come out and said anything at all ?!?
Heartbreaking and no excuse. Death penalty ✊🏼
Who shot the video? I just find it suspicious that this person is filming and continues to film after multiple shots with any hesitation to the situation going on...
They murdered him. Wtf is wrong with people.
Citizens arrest doesn’t mean you can form armed posses to hunt down someone who “may” have been a robber. He was out jogging, unarmed, and was pursued by 2 armed men. Who wouldn’t try to fight back when faced with a gun? They were clearly the aggressors in this situation
He should be shot dead also! You thought he looked like a suspect?......then call the cops! Who the fuck do people think they are?
Murder
These guys need to fry. This is MURDER! The evidence is clear in this video! Looks like he's being hunted by these degenerates.
America is probably cursed. Never seen a more senseless place.
They were blocking the street with their truck - fully armed. That looks like they were waiting to kill that man.
Who filmed it?
This is terrible. Citizens arrest doesnt mean shoot somebody. And you call police if there is somebody suspicious. Gun control NEEDED.
Sickening
Sick country
Sickening...
💔🤦
Yet another example. Should the rest of the world view Americans as violent and dangerous? Sure looks that way.
racial profiling. RIP
Citizens arrest ? Man wtf
Respond in the same language, they will understand. By fucking do this...
Why don’t you guys investigate the “murder suicide” of Bing Liu , Researcher close to uncovering something important of the CoronaVirus here at the University of Pittsburgh.
WTF!!!!
I saw the video below. Someone posted it. It made me sick. What happened? Why was he running? Why did they shoot him. Who was video taping?
Remember we're all in this together........ I cannot wait to see the support.
What’s the whole story ? The clip shows two men fighting over a gun. Don’t jump to reckless conclusions without knowing exactly what was going on here...
This is why you call the cops and observe if the guy you think is a suspect isn't being violent toward you. How awful.
Stop murdering us. Stop letting murders get away with murdering us.
WTF! Absolute scumbags, I hope they get what they deserve!
Death penalty to both of them
Those guys need to ho to jail for life
We live in a world where jogging is a threat and this is a patriotic:
😱. WTFH! Who was doing the recording?
Cowards.
His name sounds like Armed Robbery. Yikes.
He literlslt charged the guy with the gun and grabbed it. Lmao
The guy should go to jail for life or get the death penalty you can’t just shoot someone like that.Geez
Where is the video it clearly shows he was hunted down and murdered
