LOS ANGELES – A gunman on a bicycle shot a father as he cradled his 1-year-old boy in his arms on a South Los Angeles street, killing the infant, police said Tuesday.

The 24-year-old father was attacked Monday evening on a sidewalk in an area that has been plagued by gang violence, police said. The gunman appeared to be a 15- to 17-year-old boy in a hoodie sweatshirt, police said.

He rode past the father and fired several shots, police Capt. Phillip Tingirides told KCAL-TV.

The infant was shot in the stomach and died at a hospital following surgery. The father was struck in the shoulder and remained hospitalized in stable condition, police said.

Their names were not immediately released.

Police have not released a motive, though Tingirides said investigators were leaning heavily toward gang rivalry. The attacker was black and the father is Latino, authorities said.

A conflict between black and Latino gangs has led to more than a half-dozen killings in the area in the last year, police said.

Or how bout this one.
Anger grows over man shot in back by Dallas police
DALLAS - Dallas police say John Husband III, the man who was shot and killed by an officer on Saturday, was reaching for a "fully loaded" handgun when the officer fired in self-defense.

The police statement — issued nearly two full days after the incident in the 3600 block of Folklore Trail in Oak Cliff — said a car driven by Husband was pulled over by Officer Leland Limbaugh for failing to signal a turn.

The officer, hired in 2009, "smelled the odor of marijuana coming from the car" and ordered Husband out of the vehicle. When Limbaugh began to handcuff Husband, the 21 year old tried to break away.

“Suspect Husband ignored the officer’s commands and began to struggle with the officer," the statement read, adding Husband then, “reached for the gun in his waistband.”

The story contradicts what several witnesses claim, including Xavier Bryant, 22, who was in the car with Husband at the time.
