Newly released video shows the moments when Los Angeles police opened fire on a man who as holding a plastic fork.

Officers initially responded to a 911 caller who claimed an armed homeless man was getting aggressive with an employee.
Can you blame them? Could you imagine if he was able to get away with killing them by letting them bleed out after taking 10 minutes to cause thousands of tiny puncture wounds without anyone that didn't have a gun being able to do anything about it?!
Do you know how many cops die from forkings every year? Well... neither do I, but it's probably a whole lot.
Typical anti-cop sentiment from around here.
Give them a break. They thought it was an acorn.
7 cops couldn't take down a little guy with a plastic fork without killing him? How embarrassing.
But what if he poked them? That'd hurt, man. Can't take the risk.
The article says they fired non-lethal rounds and doesn't mention that he was killed. It's a rage bait headline. Not that I want to support cops, but I don't like falsehoods being thrown around
They literally start CPR on him at the end of the video and the bottom text says "killing of a man".
Hope much more clear do you want the fact that he's dead to be?
Well, he's poor, and that's about as good as being black when it comes to police interactions. I guess they'll find no wrongdoing.
Fucking wild man. This guy is one of the reasons for shit like this.
That guy's a piece of shit and should be followed in public.
Why wasn’t there a good guy with a fork to stop him?
Good thing it was a fork and not a plastic knife. Plastic knives ARE lethal weapons.
Makes sense. Officers like to fork, not get forked.
He said he wanted to eat bacon...
Fuck! I feel bad now!
I'm going to hell aren't I?
