This is Andrew Brown Jr β a 42yo Black father of SEVEN. He was gunned down by police in North Carolina as he was allegedly driving away from them, posing no danger to officers.
Andrew Brown's family deserves transparency! North Carolina police officers have delayed the viewing of bodycam footage & tried to assassinate Andrew Brown's character in effort to protect their officers! They believe we are NOT worthy of consideration, respect, or humanity!
JUST IN: Elizabeth City, North Carolina, has declared a state of emergency ahead of the release of body camera footage of the law enforcement killing of Andrew Brown Jr. last week.
