The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department said protesters attempted to block and enter the hospital where two shot deputies were taken.
“To the protesters blocking the entrance & exit of the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM yelling ‘We hope they die’ referring to 2 LA Sheriff’s ambushed today in #Compton: DO NOT BLOCK EMERGENCY ENTRIES & EXITS TO THE HOSPITAL. People’s lives are at stake when ambulances can’t get through,” the department wrote on Twitter.
A person who captured footage of the hospital incident in Los Angeles showed activists near the facility. “I want to deliver a message to the family of the pigs: I hope they [expletive] die,” one is apparently heard saying.
Videos on Twitter show that the agitators appear to identify themselves as “Africa Town Coalition” members, as they walk toward the hospital before threatening officers there. Some of them shouted anti-police slogans.
The 31-year-old female deputy and 24-year-old male deputy underwent surgery Saturday evening, Sheriff Alex Villanueva said in a late-night news conference. Both graduated from the academy 14 months ago, he said.
The deputies were shot while sitting in their patrol car at a metro rail station and were able to radio for help, the sheriff said. Villanueva, whose department has come under fire during recent protests over racial unrest, expressed frustration over anti-police sentiment as he urged people to pray for the deputies.
The department posted a video of the shooting that shows a person open fire through the passenger-side window of the patrol car.

“The gunman walked up on the deputies and opened fire without warning or provocation,” the department stated.
President Donald Trump reacted to the incident on Twitter, writing that the perpetrator and others like him are “animals that must be hit hard!”
“This cold-blooded shooting is unconscionable and the perpetrator must be brought to justice,” Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden wrote on the social media site. “Violence of any kind is wrong; those who commit it should be caught and punished.”
They hate cops and want them disbanded. They should consider, the only reason normal Americans don’t gun the down is that they know the entire FBI and LAPD would instantly mobilize to arrest them.
Cops are the only things keeping them alive.
“Senator Harris, do you have any comment since this happened in your home state? Would you call this a peaceful protest?”
Activists? No these people are criminal thugs... filthy animals...scum of the Earth... they’re NOT ‘activists’.
Of course the commie fools in the FBI will still see them as ‘peaceful’... since they haven’t murdered anyone yet...
They should be charged as accomplices to the shooters.
My guess is that a lot of LA cops are soon going to quit.
Glad Joe has expressed his outrage about this attack. My question lies closer to the locality of the attack and those politicians there. I’m talking about you Rep.Maxine Waters (CA-43) & Rep.Nanette Barragán (CA-44) as this is in your joint Congressional Districts area. I’m talking about you Madam Speaker & Rep.Nancy Pelosi (CA-12) and Senator & VP Candidate Kamala Harris (CA) and Senior US Senator Diane Feinstein (CA). If any of them have spoken, they need to speak a lot LOUDER!
PS: They are all ‘D’s, as if that is a secret!
Diligently bloating here. I’m having that second piece of second piece of cheese cake. Anything else I can do to ward off civil war 2!
Make this a campaign commercial detailing how repulsive Biden’s support of BLM is....Game, Set, and Match.
It’s coming...No matter which way it goes...I just hope we don’t wait too long...
threatening officers there. Some of them shouted anti-police slogans.
= = =
Then one of the ‘documenters’ said, ‘The police are harassing us.’
Sounds like an organized attack on LE. They should have shot them.
they never use the amboo lance to get to hospital. they have friends drive them there. Police often have to secure an area before an ambulance arrives and they don’t want the cops anywhere around their crime scenes.
Flame thrower should do it
If you keep eating cake like that, we may be able to use you to block a freeway...
Also, if it is kahlua/caramel cheesecake, please save a piece for me and I can cover the Southbound lanes...
That is the only reason I don’t go PROG/LIB/ANTIFA/BLM/COMMUNIST/SOCIALIST/DEMOCRAT hunting every day of the year.
I’ve been saying that since February.
Arrest every one of them. Charge them as accessories after the fact, for making terrorist threats, and for disorderly conduct.
Harassing and threatening people outside a hospital? That’s a shoot-to-kill offense.
