A protester fatally shot by officers in January at the site of a controversial law enforcement training site in Atlanta, Georgia, known as "Cop City" had at least 57 gunshot wounds, according to an autopsy obtained Wednesday by CBS News.
The autopsy, conducted by the Dekalb County Medical Examiner, found that Manuel Paez Teran sustained gunshot wounds to his entire body, including his head, torso, hands and legs.
The medical examiner noted that the autopsy could not determine Teran's "body position" at the time of the shooting because of "too many variables with respect to movement of the decedent and the shooters."
