LeBron James makes statement about shooting of unarmed Ahmaud Arbery

LeBron James made sure his voice was heard in the wake of new video footage released on Wednesday of unarmed black Georgia man Ahmaud Arbery being chased and shot dead by two men in the coastal town of Brunswick while he was going for a jog.

Arbery, 25, was out for a jog in his town before being chased by two men that the police have identified as Gregory McMichael and his son, Travis McMichael, 34. There have been no charges filed on the case, but the video being released has made the story much bigger and much more unjust. LeBron James expressed his anger on Wednesday morning about the lack of safety for black men in America.
