Atlanta gang video beating victim Brandon White speaks

The victim in a beating caught on camera Saturday outside a southwest Atlanta coer store spoke about the incident on Wednesday.

A calm Brandon White, 20, told members of the press during a conference that he decided to come forward after seeing the video of his beating online. In the video, the attackers yelled gay slurs as they punched, kicked and even threw a tire at  White in the beating.

FBI agents joined Atlanta police on McDaniel Street on Tuesday to process the scene and interview neighbors. They did some fingerprinting and took into evidence a tire that could be the one in the video. Surveillance video from the store showed another angle of the attack. The men can be seen preparing to jump White,  one person had a cell phone camera that recorded it. Another man is seen helping the victim walk away after the violent attack.

Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed announced a $5,000 reward for information on the men in the video on Tuesday.

White said he wasn't going to come forward about the incident, saying he felt embarrased and humilated that it took three men to beat up on one man. After seeing the posted video, he decided "to deal with it."

He said he did not know his attackers.

He also said he did not want anyone else to go through what he did. He told others that may be facing a situation similar to his to face their fears and come forward.

White said he has been a resident of the Pittsburgh community for eight months and plans to go back to school.
