GEORGIA SHOOTING-ARBERY PROFILE

BRUNSWICK, Ga. — Ahmaud Arbery was at a crossroads, his life stretching out before him, his troubles largely behind him. He had enrolled in a Georgia college, preparing to become an electrician, just like his uncles. But first, he decided to take a break. To help keep his head clear, he ran just about every day. Three months ago, he was shot during his run by a father and son who told police they believed he was responsible for break-ins in their neighborhood — a black man, killed by two white men. Those close to him say Arbery was just coming into his own. By Aaron Morrison. 1,600 words, photos, 900-word abridged version.
