Viral Video Appears To Show Hawthorne Police Fatally Shoot Dog
HAWTHORNE (CBSLA.com) A video posted online apparently shows Hawthorne police officers fatally shooting the dog of a man filming a nearby barricade situation, an attorney said Monday.
The undated video posted June 30 on YouTube shows a man driving up to an apparent police barricade at 137th and Jefferson and then stopping to use his camera to capture images of the scene.
Attorney Michael Gulden said his client Leon Rosby was watching and taking video of the Hawthorne SWAT team when police claimed Rosby was obstructing officers during the barricade.
Rosby is seen in video footage walking with the dog which appeared to be a Rottweiler near several patrol cars to capture the scene on his phone.
After an exchange with nearby officers, Rosby is heard saying the words, civil rights violation before returning the dog to his vehicle.
