Rayshard Brooks girlfriend has been arrested on suspicion of setting fire to the Wendy's where he was shot dead by cops on June 12.
Natalie White, 29, was taken into custody in Atlanta, Georgia, on Tuesday afternoon after handing herself into the authorities.
Police issued an arrest warrant for her on June 20 and shared surveillance footage of her inside a store.ย
They claim she is partly to blame for setting fire to the fast food restaurant on June 13 where Brooks was shot dead by Officer Garrett Rolfe after falling asleep at the wheel of his car in the drive-thru lane a day earlier.
Brooks was married but on the night of his death, while talking to police, he told them he was at Wendy's to pick up food for him and his 'girlfriend', 'Natalie White'.
White's attorney Drew Findling confirmed to DailyMail.com on Tuesday that they were 'very close' but declined to share more details of their relationship out of respect to Brooks' wife, Tomika Miller, who was grieving him at his funeral while White was taken into custody.ย
