   New video released in fatal police shoot

   Authorities on Monday released new video showing the moments   
   leading up to a fatal encounter between a double amputee and   
   Huntington Park police last month.   
      
   Huntington Park Police Chief Cosme Lozano said he wanted to   
   release the video in order to establish transparency with the   
   community, and indicated that the investigation shooting is   
   complex and is ongoing.   
      
   The deadly incident occurred on Jan. 26 after 36-year-old double   
   amputee Anthony Lowe allegedly stabbed another man in front of a   
   Shell gas station.   
      
   Surveillance video released Monday shows Lowe get off his   
   wheelchair and approach a man who he then attacked with a 12-   
   inch butcher knife, police said.   
      
   The victim was critically injured but is recovering.   
      
   Police also released audio from a 9-1-1 call of a witness   
   describing Lowe as the suspect.   
      
   In another video from a nearby business, Lowe is again off his   
   wheelchair and armed with the knife as officers approach with   
   their guns out.   
      
   The officers used a stun gun on Lowe twice, but he was   
   unresponsive, police said.   
      
   They eventually shot at Lowe several times, killing him.   
      
   Lowe’s family is suing the city and the police department for   
   millions of dollars in damages claiming wrongful death and civil   
   rights violations.   
      
   The family believes police could have handled the situation   
   differently, adding that Lowe was suffering from depression   
   after losing his legs and was not acting like himself that day.   
      
   Lowe apparently lost his legs during another encounter with law   
   enforcement in Texas.   
      
   The officers involved in last month’s shooting were placed on   
   paid administrative leave.   
   Lozano said the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office   
   will determine if his officers’ actions were justifiable.
