Police expected today to release videos of fatal shooting of Keith Scott in Charlotte
Police are expected to release videos of the killing of Keith Lamont Scott Saturday, according to reports by Observer news partner WBTV.
The footage, from police dashboard- and body-cams, show some views of Tuesday’s fatal shooting of the 43-year-old black man in an apartment complex parking lot. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney has said the footage does not provide “absolute, definitive visual evidence that would confirm that a person is pointing a gun. I didn’t see that in the videos I reviewed.”
Police showed Scott’s family the videos Thursday. The family, through an attorney, requested they be immediately released to the public.
