Edward Song Lee, front, died at the scene, and three of his friends are being interviewed by Los Angeles Police officers near the intersection of 3rd and Hobart Streets on the second night of the 1992 Los Angeles Riot. The youths had been pulled out of their vehicle after it came under fire upon approaching the intersection. The youths were responding to a plea of approaching looters call on the Radio Korea at the Kang-Suh Myon-Oak noodle shop restaurant.
