AZUZ: Two months ago, we reported on the controversial of Keith Lamont Scott. He was a 43-year-old African-American man who was shot and killed by an African-American police officer in Charlotte, North Carolina. At that time, officers said Scott had a gun and refused to drop it after police told him to.


Scott's family said he had no gun. Protests followed in Charlotte. Some were peaceful, others were distractive.


Yesterday, the Mecklenburg County district attorney who's been investigating the case said that the officers' use of deadly force was justified 1, that no charges would be filed against police and that 15 prosecutors 2 reached the decision unanimously. The district attorney also said that all the credible 3 evidence leads to the conclusion that Scott was armed and that his DNA 4 was found on a gun at the scene.


A lawyer representing Keith Lamont Scott's family says they still have concerns and questions about the incident, like whether police could have done more to calm down the situation before the shooting.
