After a largely peaceful night of protests, Mayor Jennifer Roberts said Friday the video of the shooting of a black man that has been viewed by the victim's family is "inconclusive" and called for it to be released publicly.
Protests erupted after Keith Lamont Scott, 43, was fatally shot Tuesday afternoon by a black plainclothes officer outside an apartment complex where police were serving a warrant.
Police claimed Scott, who was waiting in his car for his son's school bus, got out of the vehicle with a handgun and refused to obey orders to drop the weapon. He was shot, police said, after officers determined he posed an imminent, deadly threat.
