Ahmaud Arbery’s father, Marcus Arbery, says the two Caucasian males that murdered his son attacked like they were ”hunting an animal.”
”If he committed a crime, why don’t you call the authorities?” Marcus says to the news outlet WSB-TV. “But you came at him like you were hunting an animal.”
Mr. Arbery reaction comes after a new video released on Saturday shows an unknown person entering a home that was under construction and coming out minutes before Travis and Greg McMichael gunned down Ahmaud.
Travis and Greg claimed they followed and then confronted Ahmaud because he matched the description of a burglar suspect.
”Whatever they are trying to do to justify what they did, they can’t do it,” Ahmaud’s uncle Gary Arbery told the outlet.
The father and son now face felony murder and aggravated assault charges. A murder conviction in Georgia carries a minimum sentence of life in prison, either with or without parole.
