Activists are demanding justice after a double amputee was shot to death by police in L.A. County.
The Coalition for Community Control Over the Police and the family of Anthony Lowe Jr. held a news conference to bring awareness to Lowe's death. "He was loved," his cousin, Ellakenyada Gorum, said as she sobbed."And it's sad how these police are getting away with killing our African American people. Just getting away with it. He was in a wheelchair.
"They murdered my son, in a wheelchair with no legs," said Dorothy Lowe."They do need to do something about it." Police said they got a call that a man was stabbed by another man in a wheelchair. Officers said when they arrived on the scene they found Lowe with a 12-inch butcher knife. Lowe's family said he couldn't have been a threat because he was in a wheelchair, and they need more answers from law enforcement.
