,i>A tragic sidenote to The Olympics.One of the group was killed by police for looting a store during the 1965 Watts riot!

I don't believe Charles Fizer, the member in question, belonged to the group at the time of the riot. I read that he was shot when he drove his mother's 1956 Buick through a police barricade.
