ERUPTION, AGAIN – AT 9:56 A.M. ET:  And what effect will it have on the election?  From Fox: 

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Authorities used tear gas to disperse protesters, officers were injured and a highway was shut down during protests in Charlotte, North Carolina, over the fatal shooting of a black man by police who said he was armed and posed a threat.

The protests broke out Tuesday after 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott was fatally shot by a black officer at an apartment complex on the city's northeast side. They continued into early Wednesday morning, when TV footage showed dozens of protesters on Interstate 85 apparently looting semi-trucks and setting their contents on fire on the highway.

Neither the North Carolina Highway Patrol nor Charlotte police could immediately be reached for comment. The North Carolina Department of Transportation website showed a portion of I-85 near UNC Charlotte was closed in both directions early Wednesday. The website said the closure was due to police activity.

Tuesday night, a larger group of demonstrators gathered near the scene of the shooting. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department tweeted that demonstrators were destroying marked police vehicles and that approximately 12 officers had been injured, including one who was hit in the face with a rock. Photos and TV video showed police firing tear gas to break up the crowd. Some officers were in riot gear.

COMMENT:  We don't know the facts.   The fact that the officer involved is black removes any racial motive, but that won't satisfy the crazies.  There is an expectation of more violence tonight.

There was also an officer-involved fatal shooting of a black man in Tulsa.  Even though the incident was videotaped, the facts are in dispute.  The officer involved is a white woman. 

CNN went berserk over these events this morning.  The Clinton News Network was in its liberal glory.  Emotional trauma was obvious.  I personally alerted a number of paramedics in case CNN staffers needed help. 

Why don't we just wait for the facts.
