Jimmy Lopez was sitting on the sidewalk after drinking on July 4 when officers unleashed a hail of bullets, according to his family's lawyers.
A family in Hemet demanded justice after officers unleashed a hail of bullets that killed their unarmed relative on July 4.'All they told was that my son was being aggressive to the cops,' mother Mandi Diaz said. 'They lied to me. He was sitting down the whole time when they shot my son.'The shooting happened at about 1:40 a.m.
After that brief moment, Lopez smokes what appears to be an e-cigarette. As he exhales, the officer in the video appears to draw his gun and takes a step to his left. At the same time, Lopez makes a slight movement to his right. As he does, another officer off-screen opens fire. Seemingly shocked, the officer in the frame briefly ducks behind cover before joining in and opening fire. The cloud of smoke that Lopez exhaled was still visible by the time officers appeared to stop shooting.
