This is the moment a Los Angeles police officer shot dead a homeless man on a sidewalk in broad daylight.
In a video posted online, four officers are seen standing over the victim, who was sat among sleeping bags and tents in Skid Row, downtown LA.
While two police detain his female friend, another can be heard shouting: ‘Drop the gun! Drop the gun!’
Five gun shots are then fired and the man lies lifeless, face down. According to LAPD spokesman Sgt Barry Montgomery, the officers were answering a robbery call at midday on Sunday when they got into the struggle with the suspect, the Associated Press reported.
They first used a stun gun before shooting him, Montgomery said.
He was later declared dead at a hospital.
The man, who has not been identified, lies lifeless on the sidewalk. Witnesses captured on the video scream: ‘Motherf***er! Motherf***er! They just killed that man!’ as more officers pull up and order the crowds to disperse.
‘Ain’t nobody got no motherf***ing gun!’ shouted one witness as he filmed the incident.
Police did not immediately say how many officers were involved or how many shots were fired. Nor did they say whether the man was armed or identify him.
