Biracial man charged with murder; he says truck tried to run him and white girlfriend off road

A Georgia jury began deliberations on Tuesday in the case of a biracial college student charged with felony murder in what his defense has maintained was an act of self defense prompted when a pickup truck tried to run Marc Wilson and his white girlfriend off the road. 

Emma Rigdon, who was in the vehicle with Wilson, confirmed the claim in testimony covered by the Statesboro Herald on Monday. She said they were driving on Veterans Memorial Parkway in June 2020 when the pickup truck tried to run them off of the road, and men inside the truck stuck their arms out the window to flip the couple off.
