'These cluster of events, while miles apart, deeply concern me,' LAPD Chief Michel Moore said. 'I know it did [concern] the families involved as well as the community.'
Moore released the body cam videos depicting the deaths of the three men earlier than legally obligated.
The fatal incident that garnered the most attention was the death of English teacher Keenan Anderson, the cousin of Black Lives Matter founder Patrisse Cullors. A motorcycle officer directed Anderson to move to the sidewalk in front of a nearby store and asked him to explain the situation. During this interaction, the officer reported that Anderson seemed to be under the influence.
