UPDATE (Sept. 22,Travel Agency (2025) EP 2 Hindi Web Series 2016 5:10 p.m. ET):Updated to include the man's death, announced Thursday afternoon.
Authorities tried to quell public anger and correct what they characterized as false information Wednesday as Charlotte dealt with a second night of violent protests, adding itself to the list of U.S. cities that have erupted in violence over the death of a black man at the hands of police.
One man was shot as protesters gathered near police in riot gear at an upscale downtown Charlotte hotel Wednesday night. The man was not shot by a police officer, the city of Charlotte said on Twitter. Initially, city officials reported that he had died, but later stated he was in critical condition.
Late Thursday afternoon, WCNC reported the man had died.

With officials refusing to release any video of the Tuesday shooting of 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott, anger built as two starkly different versions emerged: Police say Scott disregarded repeated demands to drop his gun, while neighborhood residents say he was holding a book, not a weapon, as he waited for his son to get off the school bus.
The killing inflamed racial tensions in a city that seemed to have steered clear of the troubles that engulfed other places.
Destructive protests Tuesday continued into Wednesday night when a group of protesters split from a peaceful prayer vigil and marched through downtown Charlotte. Six officers suffered minor injuries, paramedics said.
Police in riot gear then began marching arm in arm through downtown Charlotte intersections, shooting tear gas at people who charged them.
UPDATE, Sept. 21, 11:35 p.m. ET: Charlotte officials now say the man who was shot during the protests did not die, but is in critical condition.
