The shooting death of an African-American man by a Charlotte, N.C., police officer Tuesday has sparked protests in uptown Charlotte and led to looting in the city.
The NBA's Hornets, who play their home games at Spectrum Center near where one person was killed as protests turned violent Wednesday, confirmed to WSOC-TV their official team store at the arena was being looted after several windows were broken.
