Earlier, the media was circulating reports that two cops involved in the Ezell Ford shooting in Los Angeles were cleared of any charges. But as is typical for the leftist media, that was a load of BS.
THIS JUST IN: LAPD Commission Pres says tonight reports of 2 cops cleared by LAPD in the Ezell Ford shooting are false. No decisions made.

After the lies came out about the two LAPD officers being cleared, protesters took to the streets of Los Angeles.
These were the earlier, inaccurate media reports that tried to stir the racial pot and get fireworks going in Los Angeles:

Even Al Sharpton wannabe thug got into the action when the reports of the LAPD officers being cleared were falsely spread:

It should be obvious by now that the leftist media in Los Angeles is a bit trigger happy. Seems much like the national media, the L.A. media is hoping for Rodney King style riots in 2015.
