Primary Content
Authorities have arrested two more people on suspicion of arson in the burning of an Atlanta Wendy’s restaurant where a police officer fatally shot Rayshard Brooks.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution says 33-year-old John Wade and 23-year-old Chisom Kingston were arrested on Thursday.
According to the newspaper, Wade was one of several people who organized demonstrations in Atlanta following the death of George Floyd on May 25.
Brooks’ killing in the parking lot of the Wendy’s on June 12 came amid weeks of turbulent and sometimes violent protests across the U.S. over Floyd’s death.
Authorities have previously announced the arrest of another suspect in the fire.
