SC Police Killed Black Man Who Allegedly Shot At Them While Handcuffed

South Carolina state officials say a deadly incident began when Ariane McCree was caught shoplifting at a Walmart on November 23rd, 2020.

Newser reports South Carolina police this week released a video of an officer shooting McCree, who was handcuffed at the time.

Police said the shooting was justified.

However, a state report found that officers fired at least two dozen times.

McCree's weapon hadn't been fired once.
