Video from November 2017 shows an officer approaching him as he is sitting alone in his car.

Ex-cop Gregory McMichael and his son Travis are accused of fatally shooting Ahmaud while he was out jogging as they are said to have been hunting a burglar.

The Glynn County Police Department has come under worldwide scrutiny after it took them more than two months to arrest them.

They faced no charges at the time after a local prosecutor who had worked with former law enforcement officer Gregory said the killing was justified.

Video released by Ahmaud's family shows he was chased for more than four minutes before being shot twice at close range during a scuffle.

The dad and son now face a murder trial after the case came to global attention.

Donald Trump called the video "very disturbing" and the mayor of Atlanta called it a "lynching".

The McMichaels have said they pursued him because they believed he matched the description of a burglar wanted for break-ins in the area.

Gregory has also claimed that Ahmaud attacked Travis before the gun was fired.

A judge from outside the district has been brought in to oversee their trial.
