Medical Examiner Says Ahmaud Arbery Shot at Close Range as Prosecution Rests Case
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The State of Georgia has rested its case in the trial of three white men
accused of killing Ahmaud Arbery, a Black jogger. On Tuesday the medical
examiner who performed the autopsy testified that Arbery died after
being shot three times at close range-two of the bullets hit him
including one that tore a big hole in the center of his chest. The jury
was shown graphic video of Arbery's wounds and his blood-soaked white
t-shirt. The defense is beginning its case today.
