CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department attorney says that most of the body cam footage from last week's officer-involved shooting of Keith Scott is too gruesome to be released.

Police only released two minutes of the 16-minute long video.

The attorney says that the rest of the footage shows Scott's last moments alive. Police did not show that part to his family.
