A judge has granted bail for an ex-Atlanta police officer charged with killing an African-American man in a restaurant car park earlier this month.
Garrett Rolfe, now free on a $500,000 (£403,000) bond, faces 11 charges, including murder, for the death of Rayshard Brooks, 27, on 12 June.
Mr Brooks’ widow implored the judge to not grant bail, arguing Mr Rolfe was a danger to the community.
Mr Brooks’ death fuelled anti-racism protests across the US.
He was shot while fleeing from Mr Rolfe and another white officer.
