The Los Angeles Medical Examiner's autopsy report found that Dijon Kizzee, a 29-year-old Black man killed by Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies in August, was shot 16 times

The Los Angeles Medical Examiner's autopsy report found that Kizzee was shot 16 times, with at least four of those bullets causing"rapidly life-threatening wounds." Some of the wounds were to the head, torso and back, the report said.

Dijon KizzeeRead MoreWhat led up to the shootingDeputies first attempted to stop Kizzee on August 31 for"riding a bicycle on the wrong side of the road" and"splitting traffic," Wegener said in a news conference last month. Kizzee refused to stop, abandoned his bicycle, and fled on foot with a green towel in one hand and a red and black jacket in the other hand, he said.

Police officers in TV shows shoot towards the lambs and police officers in real life shoot towards the heart 😡

When will these bastards ever stop 16 times —- really

Cops are a law unto themselves!! Shoot to injure NOT Kill !!

Why 16 times!! Did u think u had missed the Target? (Black Life )

Wrong!! Shot 16times!! Why?! Did u think u had missed the target !?

Isn't L.A. run by Democrats?

He was shot 16 times. And?

Shot 16 times by the police. That's called over-kill. Policing, that's not policing. It's an American Joke, nobody laughs at. That's rage, fear, hatred and Terror. That's men drunk on the power of their uniforms, behaving like 3rd world Banana Republic police force.

16 times? Excessive force anyone?

Why is it only cnn posts news articles about black men dieing from the police as if they are the only ones ....? Hmmm race baiting much cnn? Many ethnicities die each year by cops at a much more higher rate, but its ignored if they arent ...black. black people being used as usual

Big body small brain.

America is such a sick country...nowhere else would they even think of shooting more than 1-2 times but those cops defied the law and went on a killing spree. Every sane country would sentence them to death or at least imprison them for 20 years min. So sick 🤦

In Belfast in the 70s, police had a shoot to kill policy here, that is if you were a Catholic. Seems to me the same problem in the States. The police can disarm a person without killing them. There are many parts of the body you can shoot and bring down a felon.

Balk people will grow and be empowered ..

I wish CNN would stop calling these deaths homocides without explaining that homocide just means the person died as the result of another humans action. It does not mean murder or mean that the other human did anything wrong. Killing in self defense is homocide.

Pretty sure policy is shoot to stop. Does it really take 16 shots to stop someone?

Maybe you should include in the headline that he was reaching for a loaded gun instead of trying to divide people for profit, thanks

And they want the world to respect Trump when he is gasping for air at hell's gate!

When a white male shot a school with kids in there, escorted safely and burger king. Black male apparently with 'drugs', shot 16 times. I clearly don't see any difference between these 2 cases? Hmmm strange 🤡

Istg are the police the new SS guards cuz I don't see the difference.

Right....when he tried to pick up a gun...and only then the police shot him...always the same situation....resisting...being violent....pickup gun...etc...rarely story of a black doctor...teacher on the way to work got shot by police...always the criminal...

...so, Kyle Rittenhouse , a white, 17-year-old police admirer was arrested AFTER killing two people during a protest. Kyle was taken into custody CARRYING a LOADED RIFLE. But, Kyle’s white, so he can live. Dijon’s black so who cares. americanracism BLM

Over killed!

You know what you shoot 16 times.Things u want dead... Not a person who should be arrested and Prosecuted under the Law.When scared Police are stopped from handing out Death sentences on people who arent even charged yet. The World will be a safer place for Black people to live.

Horrible

CNN?! Remember when they were an actual news channel.

Official cause of death, COVID

Round 5, Roit!

19 rounds fired by 2 officers in 3-5 seconds... Reasonable! Bad guy had a gun! If he was riding his bike (29 year old using a bike as transportation... clue he’s made bad life choices) on the correct side of the road, didn’t run, didn’t have a stolen gun. HE WOULD STILL BE ALIVE!

White asians. Latinos. Was shot. Why do you not report. CNN is dividing united.

Here we go again......CrapNN thinks they have a scandal with President Trump’s health...CrapNN CrapShow CrapNN

They shot him 16 times because if you look at the size of him, one, two, three bullets wouldn’t do anything!

Here we go CNN trying to stir up drama 🙄

Bad cops need to be thrown in jail and tried accordingly as anyone else would. BUT, society's views over stories like this have gone straight off a cliff. It's the norm now to pander to criminals based on their race. Their behaviour and criminal history is irrelevant? SICK!

Thought cops were proficient at using firearms, why 16 bullets!? That's murder.

Shot while reaching for a fully loaded semi automatic 9 mm. You can finish the headline with that

CNN is fake news

he looks like an angel of god

16 times!

16 times. sixteen. .... SIXTEEN TIMES. Tell me about our heroic law enforcement again.

THAT is why a NINE is USELESS !!!
