The family of Andrew Brown Jr. and their attorneys will speak Monday, after authorities allowed them to view bodycamera video of the fatal shooting of the 42-year-old. The Elizabeth City, North Carolina resident was allegedly shot in the back as he drove away from Pasquotank County Sheriff's deputies who were trying to execute a search warrant.
The incident last Wednesday was followed by a public outcry as members of the community demanded the sheriff's office release the video and the city council sent a letter demanding the county sheriff's office release the footage. The mayor of Elizabeth City declared a state of emergency Monday.More Related News
