Julio Rosas of Twitchy sister-site Townhall is on the ground in Atlanta, where he noted that earlier in the night they were setting off fireworks at the Wendy’s restaurant where Rayshard Brooks was shot and killed by a former Atlanta police officer who now faces felony murder charges.

Ah yes, the burned-down Wendy’s.
Remember that white woman who set the Wendy's on fire during the Rayshard Brooks protest last weekend?
Turns out her name is literally White. https://t.co/0Pd5aZ82F1 pic.twitter.com/dGeWlf6PDX

That was earlier in the night, but as it got darker, the real fireworks started. The person we believe shot these videos has a private Instagram account so we can’t share those, but someone did grab the videos for Twitter (language warning):

Doesn't anyone know how to hit the deck at the sound of gunfire?

These people are clearly not street smart. I would have been found cover. ?♀️

Hey now.
Now who needs cops?
— Imbreezy (@Imbreezy7) June 20, 2020
My fav part call 911!!

Mostly peaceful drive by shooting.

Children stay home.

Aren’t people still supposed to be staying at home so as not to spread the coronavirus?
So sad. Who were they shooting at? Never heard the gunshot that hit her, just a click almost a full second after the last shot is heard. Why all the weapons to begin with? Hope she is okay, although amazed at how calm she is and applies her own tourniquet. Needless violence.

That was multiple calibers being shot
— JoeRogan’s Toe (@cajinbama) June 20, 2020
Yup. From different locations; like a decent distance from one another.

It's too bad no cops were around to help protect the innocent bystanders. Probably shouldn't defund the police.
— Giblet Jenkins (@davidknotts13) June 20, 2020
Mostly peaceful though.
— Mastodonkey (@mastodonkey) June 20, 2020
Mostly peaceful except for the shooting…mostly peaceful… mostly peaceful.

Good thing she listened to her parents and brought a tourniquet.
— Just Pete ⚖️ (@JustPete2020) June 20, 2020
20 seconds after shooting starts people are standing in the middle of the road recording. I guess video for their feed is more important

Applying pressure to a gunshot wound should be the first step. Using a tourniquet when it's not needed or by someone without much tourniquet experience can lead to amputations. I was taught that years ago though, maybe guidelines have changed.

Actually, it's a great item to have in first aid kits… I carry one hiking and camping… And lately with all that's going on, might be carrying one downtown more often now.

At 17 seconds some black guy says ''its a white guy that did it'' at 18-19 seconds the victim states ''no it was a black guy, it was a black guy'' '' Just before this clip magically disappears from the internet
— Deepstateactor (@deepstateactor) June 20, 2020
That clears that up.
Let’s protest someone getting shot by randomly shooting people. ?♂️
— LoneWolf907 (@LoneWolf907) June 20, 2020
Should have gone to the Capt. David Dorn memorial instead.
