WATCH: Raw Video of Unarmed #WalterScott Murdered By Cop #BlackLivesMatter via @lisafordblog
Demonstrators flocked to North Charleston City Hall in South Carolina on Wednesday to protest the shooting death of an African-American man by a police officer.
A video shows Officer Michael Slager, who is white, shooting 50-year-old Walter Scott eight times as Scott has his back to him and is running away. It appears that Scott was unarmed.
Slager is charged with murder, the FBI is investigating, and once again a police-involved shooting has sparked national outrage.
Though it’s unknown if race was a factor, protesters are wearing T-shirts that say “Black Lives Matter” and chanting the phrase that became popular after several police-involved killings of black men around the country.
