ATLANTA – Three white men have been indicted on murder charges in the killing of Ahmaud Arbery, a Black man fatally shot while running in a neighborhood near Georgia's coast.
Prosecutor Joyette Holmes announced Wednesday that a grand jury has indicted Travis McMichael, Greg McMichael and William “Roddie” Bryan Jr. on charges including malice and felony murder in Arbery's death.
Arbery was slain Feb. 23 when the Greg and Travis McMichael, a father and son, armed themselves and pursued the 25-year-old Black man running in their neighborhood.
Greg McMichael told police he suspected Arbery was a burglar and that Arbery attacked his son before being shot.
Lawyers for Greg McMichael, 64, did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment Wednesday afternoon.
