The shooting on a downtown sidewalk shortly before 6 p.m. Saturday sparked immediate anger among protesters, who marched through the streets Sunday demanding police release footage of the encounter from officer body-worn cameras.
Two officers on patrol recognized the man from a wanted flyer circulating about a robbery suspect, police Capt. Rich Freedman said.
The videos then show an officer on the sidewalk and one on the street asking the man to talk to them.
The man drops the bag, starts walking away, and then pulls an object out of the waistband of his pants and points it at the officer on the street, the videos show.
The officers yell “Stop! Stop!” and then fire their guns at him, the videos show, The man falls on the sidewalk, and the officers run up to him and handcuff him as he lay bleeding.
The officers then try to revive him and check his pulse, the videos show.
The man, identified as 25-year-old Leonardo Hurtado Ibarra, was taken to a hospital, where he remained Sunday in the intensive care unit, police said.
The officers were placed on administrative, per standard protocol, as police investigate the shootings. The U.S. Attorney’s Office and FBI will also monitor the investigation.

So I guess now the requirement is that the police let the criminal kill someone before they use their weapons.
STFU and get a ####ing job, MARRY you girl before you knock her up, or least know her name, stop having 5 kids with 5 women and be a man for God’s sake.
I thought you urban boys were so tough.
Just a bunch of crybaby faggots.
I’ve seen them marching and yelling like banshees all over the place in Brooklyn.
If you don’t blink when they confront you, they’ve got no b.lls, believe me.
Immigration status? Given our presstitutes, I’m sure that info will be quashed.
The perp lived.
Doesn’t matter. Still another excuse to pillage and cause mayhem.
(And get new flat screen TVs)
ktla pro liberal news outlet like all of LA area news outlets.
Newsrooms everywhere are ruled by Democrats and KTLA is probably no exception, but I’m not seeing any liberal bias in either this excerpt or in the full article linked. What dud I miss?
Sounds like they got a twofer; nabbed an illegal piece of garbage who obviously came to the U.S. “for a better life”. The HECK with that nonsense!
More Biden rallies on the way?
They are asking for the video, and then the article describes the “videos” — doesn’t that mean they have already released the video from the body cameras?
Protesters, who marched through the streets Sunday demanding police release footage of the encounter from officer body-worn cameras.
Lack of trust in the department findings?
A hint of bad cops?
Why bother with reporting useless statements.
Balls = No good
Faggots = OK
???????????

Ignoring a lawful order and walking away invites a felony stop. Reaching for something unseen invites lethal force. Suck it up. Probably win the lawsuit lottery, though.
They are moving the bar rapidly. It went from unjustified shooting to any time a cop defends himself. They really want cops to allow all non-Whites to steal, burn and kill anyone any time they want.
Clean shoot.
That hasn’t deterred the race pimps.
It fails to mention that the “object” he pointed at the police was a gun, according to the San Diego Union Tribune.
From 1976 to 2005, 94 percent of black victims were killed by other African Americans.”
...in 2019, according to a Washington Post analysis, police killed 40 unarmed people, 15 of them were black and 25 were white.
The truth does not matter to the radical left.

‘The department also tweeted Sunday a photo of the gun that the officers said was wrapped in camouflage cloth.
“Fearing they were going to be shot, the officers returned fire,” Freedman said.’
