 LA Times: More videos to come, cops wore cameras.... Man went for gun during 'brutal, brutal' skid row struggle, LAPD chief says... ABC News: Why Cops Say Skid Row Suspect Grabbed for Gun... A graphic video posted online Sunday shows Los Angeles Police Department officers shooting a homeless man during a dramatic struggle. The video begins with a cluster of officers, seven in total, fighting with the man on the sidewalk in the Skid Row area of the city. Tarps line the street and other people are milling around in the background of the scene. As one officer is trading punches and struggling with the man, he drops his police baton. A woman picks it up and the officer yells out “give me my stick.” At that point, two officers move towards the woman and throw her on the ground and handcuff her. The officer was on top of the man, and the struggle continued. A Taser was deployed, but the man continued to struggle. The officer is then heard saying what sounds like “he’s going for my gun” or “drop the gun.” Five shots ring out as the officers back away and hold their weapons on the motionless man. It is unclear if the same officer fired all of the shots or if other officers began firing after the initial shot. Read More |
