Cop charged with murder after shooting black man


South Carolina – A white South Carolina cop was charged with murder Tuesday ­after a shocking video showed him shooting a black man in the back as the unarmed victim ran from him, authorities said.

Officer Michael Thomas Slager, 33, was arrested after officials saw the video of him shooting 50-year-old Walter Lamer Scott Saturday following a traffic stop gone bad.

“When you’re wrong, you’re wrong,” North Charleston Mayor Keith Summey said.

“If you make a bad decision, I don’t care if you’re behind the shield or just a citizen on the street, you have to live by that decision.” More Video
