During a police check in the Californian metropolis of Los Angeles, an officer shot a black cyclist carrying a pistol. After the man was taken into custody for an inspection, he struck one of the officers in the face, the Los Angeles sheriff’s office said. The man then dropped a bundle of clothing on which a “black semi-automatic pistol could be seen,” spokesman Brandon Dean told the media.
Then an officer fired several shots. The cyclist was pronounced dead Monday at the scene of the incident.
