   The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is assisting the   
   Huntington Park Police Department with an investigation after at   
   least one HPPD officer fatally shot a double amputee who they   
   say recently stabbed another man.   
      
   Police responded to the 2400 block of Slauson Avenue at 3:40   
   p.m. Thursday and found a man who had been stabbed, the LASD   
   said in a news release.   
      
   The victim told officers he’d been stabbed by a man in a   
   wheelchair, and police found the suspected in the 1900 block of   
   Slauson.   
      
   The man, who was missing both of his legs, pulled out a 12-inch-   
   long butcher knife and threatened officers, then threw the knife   
   at them, according to the Sheriff’s Department.   
      
   Police tried to use a stun gun on the alleged assailant at least   
   twice, but it failed, and he again threw the knife at officers,   
   at which point at least one officer opened fire, authorities   
   said.   
      
   The man was hit in the upper torso and pronounced dead at the   
   scene.   
      
   Grieving family members identified the man killed as 36-year-old   
   Anthony Lowe. His loved ones stood in front of the Huntington   
   Park Police Department Monday, calling for justice in what they   
   are calling an act of murder.   
      
   “I just want the truth, nothing but the truth and justice for my   
   son my son was murdered,” said Dorothy Lowe, Anthony’s mother.   
      
   Lowe apparently lost his legs in another altercation with law   
   enforcement in Texas just last year, according to his sister.   
      
   His family said he had been struggling emotionally following the   
   loss of his limbs.   
      
   “We just don’t understand. The police are here to protect and   
   serve and to help our community and yet they’re hurting   
   individuals in wheelchairs,” said Jonathan Longmire, Anthony’s   
   cousin.   
      
   Lowe’s family and community activists believe police shot him in   
   the back and they believe security video from a business at the   
   scene can prove it. But, they claim sheriff’s investigators have   
   the video and won’t share it with them.   
      
   Video shared with KTLA showed the moments leading up to the   
   deadly shooting, and while several gunshots can be heard, the   
   actual shooting is obscured by several vehicles.   
      
   The Sheriff’s Department is assisting with the investigation,   
   which is typically standard procedure when law enforcement   
   officers shoot and kill civilians.   
      
   Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the LASD   
   Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500.   
      
   To provide information anonymously, call Crime Stoppers at 800-   
   222-8477 or visit lacrimestoppers.org.
