A night of unrest in Charlotte, North Carolina over police violence turned ugly on Wednesday as protesters clashed with police.
Amid the chaos, a CNN reporter was bodychecked by an unidentified individual who then fled from the scene. Ed Lavandera was broadcasting live from the protests when a man collided with him.

The startling scene provided a brief glimpse into what was already a violent evening. One protester suffered a gunshot wound, with reports indicating that he was shot by another civilian. Authorities initially reported that the person had died, but walked back that report later to say that the person was in critical condition and on life support.
Other scenes showed police in body armor aggressively grabbing protesters and shooting canisters that reportedly contained tear gas.

Protests started Tuesday night after police killed Keith Lamont Scott. The 43-year-old Scott died after police shot him while looking for another person. Police claim that he had a gun, while his family says that he was disabled, unarmed and only holding a book when police told him to get out of his car.
Scott's death came just days after a police officer in Tulsa, Oklahoma, killed Terence Crutcher, an unarmed black man, triggering peaceful protests.
