Body camera footage of the incident obtained by Fox News shows three officers who confronted Bell in a vehicle outsides of the apartment.

He then proceeds to advance towards the officers before one of the officers fires their gun, striking Bell.
Officers rendered aid to Bell at the scene before transporting him to a local area hospital where he was pronounced dead. No officers were injured during the incident.
"The GBI will continue to conduct an independent investigation," the agency added. "Once complete, the investigation will be provided to the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office for review."
