The family of an unarmed Black man who was fatally shot by sheriff's deputies in North Carolina says he died because of the officers' “intentional and reckless disregard of his life,” according to a $30 million civil rights lawsuit filed Wednesday.

Two Triad cities are among eight locations where rallies are planned for Tuesday over the death of Andrew Brown Jr., who was shot to death by deputies in Elizabeth City in April.
