Protesters TORCH Wendy’s where Rayshard Brooks was killed by Atlanta cops (PHOTOS, VIDEOS)

A wave of public outrage in Atlanta over the police killing of black man, Rayshard Brooks, has escalated into riots, with protesters blocking streets and setting fire to a Wendy's restaurant where the fatal shooting took place.

The resignation of Atlanta police chief Erika Shields’ and Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms’ call for the "immediate termination of the officer" who killed Brooks, failed to quell the protests which turned violent on Saturday night.
