LOS ANGELES — In the weeks after a Los Angeles police officer fatally shot a man in Koreatown, LAPD officials said little about the killing.
The department broke its silence on Friday, when it made public video footage of the deadly encounter from cameras worn by officers.
Instead of clarifying what happened, however, the video has injected more uncertainty into the incident by failing to resolve a critical question: Did Marvin Cua cause the shooting by pointing a gun he was carrying at the officers, as the LAPD alleges?
