BREAKING: Florida police officer found guilty of killing stranded black motorist in 'stand your ground' case

A fired Florida police officer was found guilty Thursday of manslaughter and attempted first-degree murder in the fatal shooting of a stranded black motorist in 2015.

Nouman Raja, 41, could face life in prison for fatally shooting musician Corey Jones, 31, who was waiting for help for his broken down SUV on the side of a South Florida highway when he was killed.

Raja's attorneys had argued that he did identify himself and should be protected by Florida's "stand your ground" law because he feared for his life.
