ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - After trying and failing to get a blood sample from an Atlanta police officer accused of shooting and killing a man while off-duty, South Fulton police want to hire more people qualified to take blood at the scene.
In early August, Melvin Potter allegedly shot a man to death outside a College Park bar after an argument, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI). South Fulton police said he refused a breathalyzer test, as is his right — but he was charged with obstruction when he refused to comply with a signed warrant for the blood sample.
