ELIZABETH CITY, N.C. — The sheriff's deputies who shot and killed Andrew Brown Jr., an unarmed Black man in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, were justified in their actions and will not be criminally charged, a prosecutor said Tuesday. The State Bureau of Investigation found Brown "drove recklessly and endangered the officers" and "used his vehicle as a deadly weapon" while attempting to resist arrest last month, Pasquotank County District Attorney Andrew Womble said at a news conference. He said the actions of the officers were consistent with their training. "Mr. Brown's death, while tragic, was justified," Womble said. "His actions caused the three deputies to reasonably believe it was necessary to use deadly force to protect themselves and others."
