Georgia state troopers fatally shot an activist on the grounds of a planned police and firefighter training center in the vicinity of Atlanta.
The troopers’ use of lethal force was determined to be “objectively justifiable,” and no legal charges will be pursued against them.
Manuel Paez Teran, the activist, lost his life during a law enforcement operation at the site.
When troopers encountered Paez Teran in a tent and he declined to exit, they discharged a pepperball launcher.
