South Los Angeles residents whose homes were damaged in a fireworks explosion by the LAPD demanded mental health services and the names of police officers involved.
about a massive fireworks explosion that destroyed part of a South L.A. neighborhood, residents Thursday demanded mental health services and the names of Los Angeles police officers involved.
LAPD Chief Michel Moore, who spoke at a closed-door meeting with residents Monday, said the fireworks placed in the vessel were not weighed with a scale but eyeballed by the technicians working the scene. The explosion displaced dozens of people, forcing them to move into hotel rooms paid for by the city as officials worked to clean up the mess. Many residents remain displaced, with some homes on the block deemed uninhabitable. Others have continued living in damaged homes.
