Fukc the pretended stupidity of this nation. Guns are everywhere and finding a gun with someone is not necessary mean he got a death sentence right at that moment. If the police are such fearful they should not fight to get that job. They should be wipping some old lady's butt somewhere in a nursing home instrad. No police on earth are as evil as police in America

In all likelihood this is what is referred to as a "Thrown Down Gun". The Police carry an extra illegal fire arm (not registered to them) usually in a calf holster that is used as a back up weapon or a gun to be thrown down (planted) near or on the victim when the shooting is not justified such as an unarmed person.
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – A source close to the investigation told CNN on Friday that the weapon recovered from the shooting scene was loaded and that the fingerprints, blood and DNA recovered from the gun matched with Scott.
Charlotte has been swept by protests starting Tuesday night following the fatal shooting of Keith Lamont Scott, a 43-year old African-American man, by a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer. The police claimed Scott had a weapon, but his family denies he was armed.
On Friday, attorneys for Scott’s family released to the media a cellphone video of the shooting taken by Scott’s wife, where the woman says that her husband "has no weapon."
Police video footage has not yet been released to the public despite public demands to do so.
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton will reportedly travel to Charlotte, North Carolina this weekend amid the protests.
