How they died
Deadly force
Officers were attempting to serve an arrest warrant, but Scott was not the person they were attempting to take into custody. Police said Scott was armed, he did not comply with orders to drop the gun, and a gun was recovered at the scene. Officer Brentley Vinson fired the fatal shot. Scott's family says he was reading a book in his car while waiting for his son to be dropped off by a school bus. The killing sparked unrest in Charlotte.
