Los Angeles police shoot dead man armed with plastic fork. Jason Maccani, 36, was killed on February 3 by a police officer.
An investigation was opened to determine whether the use of force was appropriate. Police released images of the intervention to the public on Tuesday February 21. The images, taken from a CCTV camera and pedestrian cameras worn by police officers, show the suspect cornered by seven officers in a city center building. “I remain concerned by the officer's decision to use lethal force,” police chief Michel Moore admitted last week.
