The death of Jeremy McDole who was shot and killed by Wilmington Police while in a wheelchair has the NAACP calling on state officials to shed more light on the case.
Police recently announced that they have finished their investigation into the shooting but have not released the results.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that police did reveal there was gunshot residue found on McDole’s hand and clothing when he was shot.
Police say that they only shot McDole when he reached for a gun after declining to raise his hands.
The family has claimed that he was not armed.
Ken Dryden, NAACP Vice President Ken Dryden, issued a statement saying the organization was outraged that elected officials and the state Attorney General’s office have been quiet about the case.
The civil rights leader added that the issue was one of transparency.
