Weekend marked by plans to remember Andrew Brown Jr., protest his death
Family and friends will gather again, this time to mourn and remember Brown, Sunday afternoon at The Museum of the Albemarle in Elizabeth City. His funeral will be private, at noon Monday at Fountain of Life Church in Elizabeth City.
(RNS) Many of North Carolina’s prominent clergy have called for police reform and accountability in the wake of George Floyd’s killing by former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin.
But the killing of Andrew Brown Jr., a 42-year-old man shot and killed by sheriff’s deputies in eastern North Carolina’s Elizabeth City, a town of 18,000 people on the bend of the Pasquotank River, is personal.
Brown died of multiple gunshot wounds at least one to the back of the head on April 21, as deputies served a warrant for drug charges. Coming one day after former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of second-degree murder of Floyd, Brown’s killing brought out deeper cries for justice from the state’s top religious leaders. His funeral will be held Monday (May 3).
