Jurors deadlocked Thursday in the trial of a former Los Angeles police officer suspected of fatally shooting a developmentally disabled man.
An ex-Los Angeles police officer who fatally shot a developmentally disabled man who shoved the off-duty lawman to the floor of a Corona Costco during an unexplained confrontation that led to the victim's parents being shot pleaded not guilty Thursday to voluntary manslaughter.
Jurors said Thursday they were unable to reach a unanimous verdict in the case of an ex-police officer who shot and killed a man inside a Costco.
The state Attorney General's Office will decide whether to retry the former Los Angeles Police Department officer.
In a preliminary hearing, a judge will decide whether there is enough evidence to hold an ex-cop for trial in a manslaughter case.
