In Alabama, Lee County was hardest hit by the series of tornadoes that devastated the state. Authorities put the death toll at 23 so far, with dozens still missing.

On Thanksgiving night, Emantic Fitzgerald Bradford Jr. was shot and killed by a police officer responding to gunfire in the mall. Protesters are angry at a new report that exonerates the officer.

Police initially said Emantic "EJ" Bradford Jr., who died Thanksgiving night, shot a teenager during a fight. But officials later retracted, saying it was unlikely he fired the shots that injured two.
