I am just catching up with this story, but it is sounding like the same old Whitey (authority) is racists so lets destroy peoples property that had nothing to do with the shooting. This based on a false story like The Michael Brown hands up don't shoot narrative (that many still believe). "On Tuesday night, 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott was shot and killed by Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Officer Brentley Vinson in the parking lot of an apartment complex. Both Scott and Officer Vinson and black, but the shooting nonetheless sparked Black Lives Matter protests which focused the eyes of the world on Charlotte, North Carolina."
Charlotte police originally went to the complex at approximately 4pm, looking for a suspect with an outstanding warrant. Scott was not the suspect, but was observed getting out of his vehicle with a gun, before reentering the vehicle moments later. Officers approached the vehicle and Scott once again exited with the weapon in hand. After repeated orders by Police to drop his firearm, Scott was shot and killed.
Scott’s family and Black Lives Matter protesters claim that Scott was “disabled” and was killed while he was peacefully reading a book inside his vehicle. Police have recovered a firearm from the scene, but no books were found on-site. Local protests quickly began and it did not take long for the “peaceful” protests to turn violent.
So we have a flame so lets add some gasoline to it-

the real divisions that still persist in this nation between law enforcement and communities of color.”

Corine Mack, who attended the protests, said the community is frustrated.
"When will our lives truly matter? A black father is dead. There are children tonight who will never see their father again," said Mack, president of the Charlotte chapter of the NAACP.
"It clearly appears as if our lives don't matter. We need to change policies. We need to change procedure. We need to hold police accountable. It's a modern-day lynching. Charlotte is not a good place right now; we're in the throes of this problem."
