Family members of Rayshard Brooks spoke out at a press conference following the fatal police shooting of Brooks in Atlanta, Georgia on Friday, and pleaded for justice.

Chastity Evans delivered a heartfelt tribute about her uncle Brooks, saying he had "the brightest smile and the biggest heart." She called the incident traumatizing, saying "no one walking this green earth expects to be shot and killed like trash in the street for fallen asleep in a drive-thru."

She ended off her statement by asking the city of Atlanta and the nation "to stand with this as we seek justice."

Atlanta police video released Sunday showing a seemingly routine sobriety check outside a Wendy’s restaurant that quickly spun out of control, ending in gunfire. The killing of the 27-year-old Black man in an encounter with two white officers late Friday led to protests in Atlanta and prompted the police chief’s resignation.

The officer that shot Brooks has been fired. Brooks' death has been ruled a homicide.
