Citizens of Charlotte continued to take to the streets in response to the fatal police shooting of unarmed African American Keith Scott on Tuesday after a week of protests have rocked the city after the release of full police dash-cam and body-cam footage of Lamont’s death.

The previous scale of protests and riots in response to the shooting prompted North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory to deploy the National Guard and declare a state of emergency, which has since been rescinded.
