Great team effort! We appreciate 's great investigation, which led to the ID of this suspect. — Gwinnett Sheriff's Office (@GwinnettSO)Brooks identifies a woman named Natalie White as his girlfriend in police bodycam video as officers Garrett Rolfe and Devin Brosnan talk to him about how much he may have had to drink.“Natalie White,” Brooks tells police. “She’s my girlfriend. She left off, I said, ‘Babe, I’m gonna get Wendy’s.” Brooks said he had been staying a hotel nearby with White when she dropped him off at a rental car parked at the restaurant.Findling told Atlanta TV station CBS 46 he would not talk about the extent of their relationship because of what Brooks’ family has been going through. Findling did say his client did not start the fire at the Wendy’s and, he said, video shows her walking up to the building as it is completely in flames.Atlanta police officers were called to the Wendy’s on June 12 over complaints of a car blocking the drive-thru lane. Officers found Brooks asleep in the vehicle in the lane of traffic.The officers spoke to Brooks for 40 minutes. Rolfe administered, among other tests, a breathalyzer, which registered that Brooks’ blood alcohol level of .108, slightly above the legal limit of .08.“I think you’ve had too much to drink to be driving,” Rolfe tells him and then attempts to handcuff Brooks.Cameras show Brooks struggling with officers before he wrestles away a stun gun. Brooks then begings to run. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Brooks made it just a little way before he allegedly turned towards officers with the stun gun raised and he was shot and killed.An autopsy found Brooks was shot twice in the back. Rolfe was fired from the police department immediately after the shooting and was charged with felony murder.Protesters gathered the night after Brooks was killed, breaking the windows in the restaurant before the fire was set. Investigators believe more suspects might be involved with setting the fire.Brooks’ funeral was held in Atlanta on Tuesday.Brooks and his wife have three children, 8-year-old Blessing, 2-year-old Memory and 1-year-old Dream. He also has a stepson, 13-year-old Mekai.Copyright 2020 by WPLG Local10.com - All rights reserved.
