Police video released Monday shows an officer in Charlotte, North Carolina, fatally shooting a man who was armed but didn't point his weapon at authorities. The police video shows officers repeatedly yelling for Franklin, who is black, to put his gun down. Franklin doesn't move as police approach him, the video shows. She said the officer didn't follow procedure and "didn't view Danquirs Franklin as a man, but saw him as a danger." Police Chief Kerr Putney said the video is hard to watch, but it shows that Franklin was armed.
