Man Missing Both Legs Dies After Cops Shot Him At Least Eight Times

If you thought that these killers will stop because of the outcry against their actions, you need to guess again. Obviously, no one is safe from their murderous onslaught. This legless man was murdered after the five killers beat and killed Tyre Nichols in Memphis Tennessee.

The fam­i­ly of Anthony Lowe Jr is call­ing for jus­tice after the 36-year-old dou­ble amputee was shot and killed by police offi­cers in Huntington Park, California, last Thursday after­noon. In a con­fronta­tion cap­tured on video by a bystander and post­ed to social media, Mr. Lowe, who uses a wheel­chair, is seen hold­ing a knife and scram­bling away from mul­ti­ple police offi­cers who appear to be point­ing weapons at him. Shortly there­after, police shot Mr. Lowe mul­ti­ple times and killed him. “You guys knew your lives weren’t in dan­ger,” Mr. Lowe’s cousin Ellakenyada Gorum told KCAL in Los Angeles. “He’s run­ning on his limbs. How cold-heart­ed could they be?”

The Huntington Park Police Department told the tele­vi­sion sta­tion that its offi­cers respond­ed to a call around 3:45 on Thursday after­noon from a man who report­ed that he had been stabbed by a man in a wheel­chair. After police arrived at the scene, they found and con­front­ed Mr Lowe. Police said the offi­cers first attempt­ed to taser Mr Lowe, but were unable to stop him from threat­en­ing them with the knife. Next, they shot him. The video below may be upset­ting, but does not include footage of the shoot­ing itself. To Mr Lowe’s fam­i­ly, the notion that police had to fatal­ly shoot Mr Lowe to pro­tect them­selves strains creduli­ty. “Be real­is­tic about this, what could he have pos­si­bly done in a wheel­chair?” Mr Lowe’s aunt, who did not pro­vide her name, told the tele­vi­sion sta­tion. “We want jus­tice.” The shoot­ing of Mr Lowe, a Black man, comes as police vio­lence per­pe­trat­ed against Black Americans is once again at the fore­front of the nation­al con­scious­ness due to the killing of Trye Nichols by police in Memphis and the killing of Keenan Anderson by police in Los Angeles. Body cam­era footage of Mr Nichols’ death released last week sparked fresh out­rage over the killing in Memphis and around the coun­try, with Americans respond­ing by par­tic­i­pat­ing in protests in mul­ti­ple cities. Now, Mr Lowe’s fam­i­ly and com­mu­ni­ty mem­bers are also call­ing for jus­tice to be done in his case.
