The teenage daughter of a 38-year-old man killed by an LAPD officer in South Los Angeles has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit, claiming the shooting was unjustified and the officer who pulled the trigger had, “reckless violent and homicidal propensities.”Daniel Hernandez, who was holding a box-cutter style utility knife, was shot April 22 during a confrontation at the scene of a traffic collision by officer Toni McBride, the daughter of prominent police union director and veteran officer Jamie McBride.According to the lawsuit obtained by the I-Team, Hernandez was unsteady on his feet, “posing no threat to anyone,” when McBride fired. “Each of McBride’s deadly rounds lacked justification and recklessly endangered multiple bystanders,” the suit said.
