The LA Times reported about the fatal shooting which occurred on May 11, 2008, in which Inglewood police officers shot three men in a car at a parking lot. Police officers were responding to a shooting in a parking lot near a Rally's Restaurant and mistakenly shot. The officers mistakenly shot a car with three young men, Larry White, Michael Byoune, and Chris Larkin. Unfortunately Michael Byoune was killed, while the other two men were seriously injured. The Daily Breeze has reported that the families of the young men are bringing up a $25 million lawsuit against the city of Inglewood. The community has contributed to an independent investigation to look into the actions of the police officers that fatal Sunday to see if they followed protocol. Investigations are ongoing, but it seems as though police mistakenly shot at the car because they thought the gunman was in the backseat. The young men probably heard the gunshots and were trying to get to safety, but accidentally crossed paths with the officers who shot at will.
