Ahmaud Arbery would have been 26 on Friday.
Friends and family have remembered the Georgia resident as a source of light and positivity. He was active in the Brunswick-area community, and most of all he loved to run.
Rain or shine, the running enthusiast took to the residential streets in his neighborhood to get in his daily workout.
However, what is said to have started as a routine midday jog on Feb. 23 turned fatal when he, a black man, was gunned down by a former police officer and his adult son. Video of Arbery’s shooting death surfaced online this week, sparking national outrage.
