ckf Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Charlotte, North Carolina (CNN)[Latest developments, published at 9:57 p.m. ET] The person who was killed at a violent protest in Charlotte was shot by another civilian, the North Carolina city tweeted on its official account. Charlotte police did not fire the shot, the tweet said. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney told Fox News about the death that occurred during a protest over a deadly officer-involved shooting Tuesday. A line of police officers wearing riot helmets and carrying shields have been approached at times by angry protesters. One man, who tells CNN he is a public defender, puts himself between the two lines of people, trying to get people to calm down. Police have grabbed one person and taken him behind the line of riot officers. [Original story, published at 9:17 p.m. ET] For a second night, protests over a deadly officer-involved shooting in Charlotte, North Carolina, turned violent, with police firing tear gas and demonstrators throwing objects and trying to damage vehicles. Keith Lamont Scott, a father of seven, was killed by police in an apartment complex parking lot Tuesday as officers looked for another man named in a warrant they were trying to serve. The shooting set off a long night of violent protests and Wednesday the demonstrations continued for a second night, starting off as a peaceful march through downtown Charlotte. But when the demonstrators neared an Omni Hotel, some people climbed the roof of an outdoor mall and started throwing objects at the crowd. Other people were banging on the doors of the hotel, and police in riot gear emerged in the entrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zambroski Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I don't understand why their "king" doesn't step in and calm the natives. How many "savage unrests" does this make now in the last few years of his term? Ahhhhh......bringing us all racial peace and unity. Now if it wasn't for all these pesky laws and dedicated police officers...and of course all the white people in the way! But hey.................that's none of our business.

The correct response for LEO's should be to walk away calmly and slowly and act like everything is gonna be fine. It's why Chicago is working out so well. If we'd all just quit provoking these shootings and violent outbursts would stop. Now, if you'll kindly call me a small watercraft to escape "LIB ISLAND", I'd appreciate it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeadoo Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 My guess is the protester that got killed was a black man, killed by another black man. Just going with the odds on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
