Charlotte residents said Scott, 43, had no gun, and was reading a book in his car while waiting to pick his son up from a school bus stop.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney insisted on Monday that officers had found a gun, but said they can't publicly disclose any evidence for the time being. He also said police did not find a book, and that Vinson was not wearing a body camera.
