Loved ones are demanding justice for Anthony Lowe, a man in a wheelchair who was armed with a knife when police in Huntington Park shot him to death on Slauson Avenue.

Back in January 26, the Huntington Park police responded to a stabbing call. When officers found Lowe – who had both of his legs amputated – they saw the 36-year-old man armed with a long butcher knife.

In the video, police are pulling up to Lowe. Police say he had just dismounted his wheelchair and had allegedly stabbed someone unprovoked, leaving that person in critical condition.Officers claim Lowe threatened to advance and throw the knife at them and that was then an officer shot him, killing the double amputee.

"If you guys are here to protect and serve us," Lowe's cousin Anthony Fuller said of Huntington Park PD. "Protect us. Serve us."

I don't know why in these situations the cops can't just aim for a leg. Why kill the guy?

LA fosters criminal behaviors by tolerating deviance in the population. Pony up your tax dollars citizen voters

Lol fox 11 be eulogizing criminals like they’re Jesus. This loon stabbed a person.

He literally stabbed someone before he was shot. The shooting was clear cut.

FOH he had just stabbed someone and left them in critical condition unprovoked so YES he was a threat

Drop the knife. Simple

Wow, this is just getting ridiculous... You can't get a knife from a guy in a wheelchair without shots fired...? Do they even train cops anymore...?

So the dude stabs another guy and the cops come, he then threatens the cops and tries to flea and he gets shot. Yeah, he didn't do anything to deserve that 😂😂 if you don't want to get shot then maybe don't put yourself in that situation. Get a fucking job and just smoke weed

So what’s the problem?

Anthony Davis heated over no-foul call in Lakers' loss: 'The refs were bad'Anthony Davis criticizes the referees after a missed foul call costs the Lakers a chance at a win in a 125-121 overtime loss to the Boston Celtics. I don't know what the refs think they saw, but even a visually-impaired person could have seen that was a foul & the league will do nothing to right this unconscionable wrong. They never do. Should be mad he let 6MOTY click him down to only 16 points. Imagine being this guy and playing for one of the worst teams in the league and complaining about a call.
