Woman shot in leg near Wendy’s where Rayshard Brooks was killed

A woman was shot in the leg Friday evening outside the south Atlanta Wendy's where Rayshard Brooks was shot and killed by a police officer, authorities confirmed.

The 24-year-old was protesting with a large group of demonstrators along University Avenue when gunfire rang out about 10:45 p.m., Atlanta police spokesman Officer Steve Avery said Saturday.

In a cellphone video posted online, about 20 gunshots can be heard before a woman screams and falls to the ground. Other protesters surrounded her and yelled for the shooting to stop.

The video is embedded below. It contains explicit language and violent content.

The woman is expected to survive her injuries, authorities said.

According to police, officers at the scene received conflicting accounts of what happened.

The woman told police she saw a bald man who appeared to be firing randomly before she was struck, Avery said. Another witness, however, told officers that a man and woman drove up to the scene and began shooting at the crowd.

“Investigators are reviewing the accounts of the shooting and working to determine the circumstances surrounding this incident,” Avery said.

Friday’s shooting outside the Wendy’s was the third to occur within several hours.

About 8 p.m., a protester fired at a man attempting to drive past a crowd of demonstrators at a Midtown intersection, according to police. No one was injured in that incident, but one protester was cited for disorderly conduct.
