Autopsy reveals anti-'Cop City' activist's hands were raised when shot and killed

Demonstrators protest the death of an environmental activist, who went by Tortuguita, in Atlanta, in January. Tortuguita was killed Jan. 18 after authorities said the 26-year-old shot a state trooper.

The 26-year-old protester, Manuel Esteban Paez Terán, was killed in January in an Atlanta-area forest as police cleared an encampment of activists who oppose the construction of Atlanta’s “Cop City.”
