Remember Charly Keunang? The Cameroonian shot by the Los Angeles Police Department on March 01, 2015. 89.3 KPCC is reporting that the homeless had drugs in his system at the time of his death, but his family is having none of it, is suing the LAPD for wrongful death and demanding $20 million.
A new report by the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office reveals an unarmed homeless man shot by LAPD officers on Skid Row in March had methamphetamine and marijuana in his system.
An autopsy by the coroner’s office released Tuesday found Keunang was shot six times — twice in the chest, twice in the torso and twice in the left arm. Four of the shots were fatal.Caught on video by a bystander, the shooting of Charly Leundeu Keunang was viewed by millions of people, drew international attention and sparked angry protests outside police headquarters in L.A. One bullet entered his torso, exited his chest and re-entered his right arm, according to the autopsy report. Two were “contact gunshot wounds.” LAPD Chief Charlie Beck has said Keunang, 43, struggled with officers and tried to grab one of their guns when they tried to talk to him about reports he had robbed someone.
His family claims officers were negligent and used excessive force, filing a wrongful death lawsuit against the LAPD and the city of Los Angeles seeking $20 million.

Kenya's Uhuru Kenyatta is the second African President in less than two years to reject any consideration of gay rights, as favored by U.S President Barak Obama. Last week, Nigerian President Mohammadu Buhari told Obama during a state visit to the U.S that sodomy is against the law in Nigeria.
Barack Obama who is on a visit to Kenya for the first time since becoming President, spoke strongly against discrimination today at a news conference. Uhuru Kenyatta on his part said Kenya does not share the same views. He described gay rights as "really a non-issue" in Kenya, adding that the country's priorities are in areas "that are day-to-day living for our people".
A fresh explosion has hit the town of Maroua this evening.
Reports say the bomb exploded in the Pont Vert neighborhood.
It is not clear if it was a suicide bombing. I just spoke with someone who says the attack happened right before his very eyes. He was drinking with friends when a very violent explosion occurred.
