Protests in Charlotte, Atlanta after release of police shooting video

A couple hundred demonstrators chanted and marched through Charlotte on Sunday, as protests persisted after the release of two videos showing the fatal shooting of a black man by police officers in North Carolina’s largest city.

Angry protesters have filled the streets of Charlotte every day since the Tuesday killing of Keith Scott, 43, who police said was armed when officers shot him.

Crowds were smaller on Sunday than earlier in the week, but protesters said they would continue until police, who on Saturday released portions of videos showing Scott’s death, published all the footage.

The video released offered no clear evidence that Scott was holding a gun when he was shot. (Reuters)
