Long Beach Police Murder Man for Holding Water Nozzle

Notice how the pigs lie and say that he pointed the water nozzle at them -- they admit that they didn't announce their presence and they snuck up on him , so how did he know where to point? Cops ALWAYS lie to cover their asses. And they cuffed the guy after shooting him and allowed him to bleed to death .. basically a summary execution. The kind of thing you would expect in a 3rd world country.

Long Beach police chief admits officers never identified themselves to man they shot
Dec. 14, 2010 | Frank Stoltze | KPCC

Long Beach’s police chief has admitted that his officers never identified themselves before they shot and killed a man Sunday. The victim was sitting on a friend’s front porch.

The police chief said two officers opened fire on 35-year-old Douglas Zerby after they thought he pointed a gun at them. Zerby had been holding a water nozzle with a pistol grip.

Before backup arrived, the chief said, Zerby used a two-handed grip on the water nozzle and fully extended his arms toward one of the officers. It’s unclear whether he knew the officer was there.

Zerby’s father told the Long Beach Press telegram that police “murdered” his son. Douglas Zerby was the father of a 7-year-old child.
