Activists demand justice after shooting death of double amputee by Huntington Park police

Activists outraged at the shooting death of a 36-year-old double amputee demanded justice and accountability Monday during a news conference.

The Coalition for Community Control Over the Police and the family of Anthony Lowe Jr. held the conference to bring awareness to Lowe’s death.

“He was loved,” Ellakenyada Gorum, a cousin said as she sobbed. “And it’s sad how these police are getting away with killing our African American people. Just getting away with it. He was in a wheelchair. What more could he do? What more could he do?”
