Less than 24 hours after a shocking video showing Officer Michael Thomas Slager firing eight shots into the back of an unarmed man went viral, his firing from the police force has been confirmed. Slager claimed that he feared for his life after stopping unarmed Walter Lamar Scott, 50, for driving with a busted tail light last weekend. A bystander saw the altercation between both men and captured video of Scott running away from Slager as he slowly followed him repeatedly firing his weapon. A murder charge was quickly filed against the officer, and protests are planned for later today, April 8, in North Charleston.
