The first officer on the scene said he didn't have enough medical training to help Ahmaud Arbery's severe injuries after the shooting.
The first officer on the scene of Ahmaud Arbery's shooting testified he could not provide medical assistance because he did not have the training or equipment to treat Arbery's injuries.
Former Glynn County police patrol officer, Ricky Minshew, told the court he arrived at the site of the Satilla Shores subdivision about a minute after the gunshots sounded. Apparently, Arbery's body lying face-down on the street with pool of blood surrounding him. "Without having any other police units to have my back, there was no way I could switch to do anything medical and still watch after my own safety," Minshew said."A gunshot wound of the nature that was inflicted on this victim, that would probably be beyond the scope of ability for this officer to address," Keith Taylor said, a former police sergeant.
