Cell Phone Footage Captures Charlotte Officer-Involved Shooting

  • Sep 23, 2016

The New York Times has released footage of the events leading up to the officer-related shooting of Keith Scott.

In the video, shot by Keith's wife, Rakeyia, you can hear police shouting out commands for Scott to, "Drop the gun!"

Rakeyia tries to tell police officers that Scott doesn't have a gun, that he has a TBI, or traumatic brain injury. 

Shortly after, officers plead with Scott again to drop the gun, to which Rakeyia responds with, "Don't you do it!"

See the video below.
