#KeithScott: Mecklenberg County DA decides to not file any charges against police officers who killed Keith Lamont Scott and begs people to read the police report before getting upset

Throughout the city of Charlotte, there have been protests and riots. It looks like it definitely will not stop, now. All morning long, the DA has been meeting with the officers, lawyers, and the family of Scott, letting them know what will happen.
