*What? – A coalition of Los Angeles civil rights and gang intervention activists will hold a vigil and press conference for the homeless man who was shot last night outside McDonald’s and call for the public’s help in capturing the 2 women suspects who allegedly shot him.

“The shooting of a homeless and disabled man in a wheelchair is a cowardly and cruel act.  These individuals are the most vulnerable in our society and should be protected not shot at.  It’s critical we have the public’s help in bringing these individuals to justice,” stated Najee Ali Director of Project Islamic Hope.
