• "We didn't just have a bad day for the community, this is a loss for the entire country," Davis said during Tuesday's press conference.
• "Charlotte isn't going to be the last place that this happens, but Charlotte will be the place that will heal, that will heal with dignity and respect for everyone," Lyles said.
• President Joe Biden said in a statement late Monday, "When a law enforcement officer puts on that shield in the morning and heads out the door, their family members dread the phone call — the very call that came today. It's like losing a piece of your soul."
• "Today's an absolutely tragic day for the city of Charlotte and for the profession of law enforcement," Jennings said Monday when CMPD addressed the media for the first time. "Today we lost some heroes that are out just simply trying to keep our community safe."
