Video footage has emerged of three Los Angeles police officers who shot and killed a black man as they wrestled with him on the ground.

Authorities say the man was shot after grabbing for an officer's gun.

After the shooting, police are seen drawing their batons and warning an angry crowd to step back.

Local homeless activist General Jeff says it's just another case of police brutality.

"From the Mike Brown in Ferguson to Eric Garner in New York, even before those two here in Skid Row there was Dale Garrett"

General Jeff says the LA Police Department will have a hard time convincing many people their claims are correct.

"Because they are having a difficult time they are hollering he went for my gun, but are the claims really valid?"
