Police in South Carolina have released body camera video of officers fatally shooting a handcuffed black man they said was wielding a gun in a Walmart parking lot. Footage of the fatal shooting has only just been released after the incident sparked protests and community unrest in the small South Carolina city. Ariane Lamont McCree, 28, was shot and killed by police outside a Walmart in Chester, South Carolina back in November. The video shows that McCree was at least eight cars away from the officers when they started firing. Chester Police Chief Eric Williams told The Herald that the video shows the officer took appropriate action.
