An Atlanta-area district attorney said Sunday that the police officer who fatally shot Rayshard Brooks may face a charge of murder.

Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard told CNN’s Fredricka Whitfield Sunday that he is considering one of three possible charges against former Atlanta Police officer Garrett Rolfe for Friday night’s shooting death of Brooks during an arrest for allegedly driving while intoxicated.
