The three men accused of killing a black man Ahmaud Arbery in Georgia last year have been unanimously found guilty of murder.

Travis McMichael, his father Greg McMichael and neighbour William Bryan shot dead the 25-year-old in February 2020 while he was on a run.

The trio claimed Mr Arbery had been involved in a spate of burglaries in the area and had killed the man in self defence while attempting to make a citizens arrest.

All three men face the prospect of life imprisonment with sentencing scheduled for a later date.
