A police officer testified Friday he planned to give Ahmaud Arbery a trespass warning for repeatedly entering a home under construction before the 25-year-old Black man was chased and shot dead by neighbors who spotted him running from the property.
BRUNSWICK, Ga. —
“Once we make contact with the person on the property, we explain to them the homeowner does not want them there, they have no legal reason to be there,” Rash said. He added: ”I explain to that person, if you ever come back onto this property for any reason, you will be arrested.” A patrol officer assigned to the neighborhood, Rash said he was trying to find the young man with tattoos and short twists in his hair who had been recorded inside English's house. He shared the clips with neighbors, including Greg McMichael, 65.
“No ma'am,” the officer replied, saying he never intended for Greg McMichael to do anything other than call police if the man was spotted inside the house again. The jury saw Rash's body camera video, which shows him entering the home under construction with a flashlight and his gun drawn. Rash said Travis McMichael's report that the man could be armed made him more of a potential threat.
