Federal prosecutors opened a civil-rights probe into the police shooting of an African American man in Louisiana, as a second disturbing video emerged of him pinned to the pavement and being blasted by a cop at point-blank range.
Baton Rouge police insisted that 37-year-old Alton Sterling was armed when two white officers approached him during the early Tuesday morning confrontation.
But in two sets of video of the shooting, Sterling cannot be seen with any weapon.
