" A Georgia police officer who shot and killed a 33 year old black man who was running away from him has been arrested and charged with voluntary manslaughter and violating his oath of office.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) issued warrants for the arrest of Zechariah Presley, 25, an officer with the Kingsland Police Department. He turned himself in on Wednesday.

"News 4 of Jacksonville also reported that there were nine incidents during his 13 months as a police officer, which included one incident where "a man wrote a letter to the Police Department, saying he felt he was in fear of his life from Presley and another officer, who would park in front of his house." News 4 reported that "an Internal Affairs investigation found the claims to be unfounded."
