Uptown Charlotte has become a very different place over the past few hours. Ever since the shooting of a man by a Charlotte police officer, protests and riots have reigned.
During Wednesday's protests, people looted and smashed the windows at the team store of the Spectrum Arena, home of the Charlotte Hornets. The source was confirmed by WSOC-TV.
