NPR A week after the shooting death of Andrew Brown Jr., protesters continue to march in the streets of Elizabeth City, shouting, “Release the tape - the WHOLE tape!”
This week began with all eyes locked on North Carolina as the fatal shooting of Andrew Brown Jr. by Pasquotank County deputies became the latest flash point in a seemingly endless stream of news and outrage over the deaths of Black Americans at the hands of police.
A lawyer for the family, who viewed a 20-second snippet of body camera video on Monday, called the fatal shooting during an arrest an execution. An independent autopsy showed Brown was shot five times, including in the back of the head, and the FBI began a civil rights probe into the case. The local prosecutor said deputies were hit by the car Brown was driving as the shooting unfolded, and a Superior Court judge denied requests to immediately release body camera footage to the public, saying he thought it could hinder the investigation.

The Mecklenburg County Health Department is moving forward with plans to establish a violence interruption program in hopes of stemming violent crime, especially gun violence, in Charlotte.
Plans for the program have been in the works since January 2020, but its rollout was delayed by the pandemic. The county now says it has selected a national nonprofit called Youth Advocate Programs to implement the program and hire its staff in the coming weeks.
Mecklenburg County s deputy health director, Raynard Washington, says the goal is to hire five to seven full-time violence interrupters plus two caseworkers and initially focus on the Beatties Ford Road and Lasalle Street corridor.
