The family of Rayshard Brooks reached a $1 million dollar settlement with the city of Atlanta, more than two years after police fatally shot the 27-year-old Black man in a Wendy’s parking lot, according to Ryan Julison, a spokesperson for Stewart Miller Simmons Trial Attorneys, the law firm representing Brooks’ family. “The family of Rayshard Brooks is pleased to have reached a settlement with the city of Atlanta that resolves their civil case.
Brooks was killed by Atlanta Police in a Wendy’s parking lot in June 2020 after he fought two officers who tried to arrest him for DUI. During the struggle, Brooks overpowered officers Garrett Rolfe and Devin Brosnan, took a Taser from Brosnan and ran away, according to prosecutors. While fleeing, he turned back and fired the stolen Taser at Rolfe, who then shot Brooks twice – in the back and buttocks – killing him, prosecutors said.
