Police say a man and woman were attacked by a group of men who were gathered in front of the burned Wendy's restaurant where Rayshard Brooks was shot, according to WSB-TV.

Ty Spiceland, 35, and a woman who did not wish to be identified were confronted by the group - some of whom were armed with handguns - on Atlanta's University Avenue around 1:30 p.m. on Saturday. Spiceland says that members of the group punched him in the face three times when he rolled down his window and proceeded to throw rocks at his car.

Spiceland later told WSB reporter Matt Johnson that the group told him white people were not allowed on the road.

"Overall I absolutely agree with their side," he said. "All I wanted to do is just roll down the window and try and reason with the guy and say, 'Hey, we're not going to Wendy's, we're just passing through, we'll be gone in one second.' And he just didn't want to hear that or anything about that, he straight-up said, 'No white people are allowed on this road.'"

The woman also said the group kept them from going through because they were white.

"They said, 'You can't go this way,'" she recalled in a separate video, adding, "You're not African American. Only African Americans are allowed on this road. You're white, you're a cracker, whatever word they used. You're not allowed on this road. Turn around."
