Antonio Planas is a breaking news reporter for NBC News Digital.
Atlanta police have fired an officer who in August used a stun gun on a 62-year-old church deacon, who later died, authorities announced Tuesday. Officer Kiran Kimbrough did not follow the department’s standard operating procedures during the Aug. 10 arrest of Johnny Hollman, who failed to sign a citation following an accident, according to a Tuesday statement from Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum. Kimbrough went ahead with the physical arrest without having a supervisor on scene, he said.
“The driver was taken to Grady Hospital and has been pronounced deceased.” An autopsy determined Hollman’s manner of death was a homicide. The medical examiner found heart disease contributed to his death. Kimbrough was hired as an Atlanta police cadet in March 2021 and became a police officer that October, according to Georgia Peace Officer Standards & Training Council records. Those records show he had no disciplinary history.
