Protests after decision on Andrew Brown shooting video
Protesters, including a crowd of about 200 who marched through town on Wednesday ahead of a dusk-to-dawn curfew, have been clamoring for all the body camera videos to be shared with the public.
Pasquotank County Sheriff Tommy Wooten and roughly 20 media organizations had filed petitions to release the footage from sheriff's deputies involved in the shooting death of Brown on April 21, arguing disclosure was in the public interest.
The shooting of Brown, a 42 year-old Black man, has led to a week of boisterous but peaceful demonstrations in Elizabeth City, a riverfront community near the Virginia border whose population of roughly 18,000 is half African-American.
