CBSN
The family of Andrew Brown Jr. and their attorneys plan to speak Monday after authorities allow them to view body camera video of the fatal shooting of the 42-year-old Black man. 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.
An attorney representing Brown's family told reporters that authorities said they needed more time with the bodycam video to redact portions before showing it to the family. Attorney Harry Daniels said he received an email about the delay about an hour before the family was scheduled to see the video.Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
