Hate Crimes Charges Filed Against Georgia Men in Ahmaud Arbery Murder
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Federal prosecutors have indicted three white men in Georgia for hate
crimes and attempted kidnapping in connection with the death of Ahmaud
Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man who was chased down by the men and shot
to death while out for a jog last year. The men - retired police officer
Greg Mc Michael, his son Travis and their friend William Bryan - already
face numerous charges in Georgia, including felony murder.
