A jury on Monday heard closing arguments in the trial of three Georgia men charged in the death of 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery, with defense lawyers describing Arbery’s death as a tragedy that occurred in an act of self-defense.
Arbery was fatally shot on a residential street on Feb. 23 last year as he ran through a small Georgia neighborhood. Three men were arrested in connection with his death after video footage of the incident emerged on May 5, 2020.
