What really happened here? I saw this video on facebook and was shocked, but am not naive enough to trust that I am being told what really happened here. Did the police lose control or did something legitimate happen that warrented this response?

I wouldn't want to live somewhere where that is even possible.

Well first the dog didn't attack a kid in a stroller it was apprehending a full grown male adult not a kid in a stroller.

Police don't like to be questioned - especially in So. Cal.

They don't like rocks and bottles thrown at them either

I don't imagine anyone likes being abused or assaulted.

Rubber bullets?

Do any PD's really use rubber bullets anymore?

They used a different euphemism in the video. "Rubber bullets" gets the point across to the dummies like myself.

Tensions were high after Saturday's shooting, which resulted in the death of a man identified by family as Manuel Diaz, the newspaper reported. Authorities have not confirmed the victim's identity.

Anaheim Police Sgt. Bob Dunn told The Times the incident began Saturday when two patrol officers tried to approach three men in an alley in the 600 block of North Anna Drive about 4 p.m.

It was unclear why the officers first approached the men, but Dunn said they gave chase and one of the officers followed one of the men to the front of an apartment complex in the 700 block of North Anna, where the shooting occurred about 4 p.m.

The man was taken to a hospital, where he died about 7 p.m., authorities said.

Police remained at the scene to investigate the shooting, Dunn said, and were encircled by a group of people who began throwing things, including bottles and possibly rocks, at the officers. At one point, the crowd also pushed a dumpster holding burning trash toward police, reports said.

Officers used non-lethal rounds and pepper balls to control the crowd, Dunn said. A police dog also got free from an officer's car and charged at several people before it was pulled back, he added.

That's all I know from the LE side....

The one guy showed the results of the non lethal ammo and it looked like it hurt...I think i'd rather be tazed.

Bean bag rounds.

That would be my guess...baton rounds (rubber or wood) are still available, but I cant recall the last time I saw a PD use them.

I also saw a pepperball gun in use....

Anaheim is a good city with a solid police force. These cops were put a bad situation and responded. It's too bad the police have to take so much heat for dealing with scum.
