ATLANTA (Reuters) - The mother of Ahmaud Arbery filed a federal civil rights lawsuit on Tuesday against the three men accused of killing her son, a Black man who was chased down and shot dead as he jogged through his Georgia neighborhood.
The $1 million suit, filed by Wanda Cooper on the anniversary of her son s death, also names police and other officials who did not initially bring charges in the case. It alleges the killing was racially motivated, stating that the defendants were motivated to deprive Ahmaud Arbery of equal protection of the law and his rights by bias, animus, (and) discrimination.
