That's good news, Six. It'll be interesting to see and hear more of the evidence. I think Tulsa PD was wise and right to release the police cam footage quickly instead of floating a false narrative and creating more speculation.
Over in Charlotte........it's a different story. The Chief of Police (Kerr Putney) said in a press conference today that he ain't releasing the police cam video of the fatal shooting of Keith Scott to the public. The community continues to demand transparency and push for its release.
The protester who was critically shot last night in Charlotte died this evening (neither the shooter nor the victim has been identified to the public yet). A curfew was put in place for midnight tonight until 6 am Friday.
Chief Putney also said that he's reviewed the cam footage and there's nothing to indicate that Mr. Scott pointed a gun at the officers on the scene (NC is an open-carry state). Chief Putney said in today's press conference that he would allow the family of Mr. Scott to view the footage if they so desired, which they did this evening. The family's attorney told the media that it's unclear what Mr. Scott was holding, but he was clearly backing away and wasn't being aggressive or threatening anyone when he was shot dead.
I hope the police cam footage is released to the public soon.
