LAPD Mistakenly Shoot & Kill Tosh.0 Producer Who Was Fleeing For His Safery From Knife-Wielding Attacker!

"Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies mistakenly shot to death a hostage who was fleeing from a knife-wielding attacker at a West Hollywood apartment, authorities announced Thursday. John Winkler, 30, an aspiring television producer, died at a hospital following Monday night's confrontation. "Taking the life of an innocent person is a police officer's greatest nightmare," Interim Sheriff John Scott said at a news conference. The entire department mourned Winkler's death, he added. Winkler was "hanging out" with some friends who lived in the apartment below him on Palm Avenue when a man who also lived in that apartment took them hostage at knifepoint, authorities said." - LATIMES
