In another latest case of a U.S. Police shooting, an officer from Los Angeles shot down an unarmed homeless man in Venice.

According to the city's chief of police, if he can have it his way, he wants the cop responsible be charged for the crime.

For more than 15 years, the Los Angeles Police Department averaged to have shot at least one person per week, with no officer getting punished. Add to the fact that the LAPD was reported by Think Progress to have shot and killed more people than any other department in America.

And last year, Police Officer Clifford Proctor shot a homeless man named Brendon Glenn while he was lying on his stomach, as he was attempting to push himself off the ground.

According to Proctor's lawyer, Glenn was about to grab his client's partner's gun, which prompted him to shoot the man. However, witnesses and a surveillance video showed that it was not the case.

In a report by ABC7, Glenn was at a bar and had words with the two officers earlier the night of the incident, but the two left the scene. However, he had an altercation inside the bar, which prompted the bouncers and the two officers to go back and confront him.

According to eye witnesses, Glenn proceeded to say something to one of the officers that made the police take him to the ground.

Furthermore, LAPD Chief Charlie Beck reviewed the video and saw that despite the confrontation, Glenn was not attempting to grab the officer's gun, but instead was just struggling to stand up. In the video, it showed that Officer Proctor stepping back and pulling his gun, then proceeding to shot Glenn twice in the back, killing him.

The chief of police then admitted that the officer's actions were not justified, which led him to recommend to District Attorney Jackie Lacey to hit Proctor with criminal charges.

Beck's recommendation resulted in him being criticized by the Los Angeles Police Protective League Union, who represents the officers in the city.

The league said that Beck's recommendation is a sign of irresponsibility, as he already rendered judgment to Proctor despite being still in the early stages of the investigation. They went on to reiterate the commonly cited phrase that "everyone is innocent until proven guilty."

Amidst the criticism, Beck asked the Police Commission to delay its review of the fatal shooting, citing that the DA's office is still evaluating whether to charge the police officer who opened fire, according to Los Angeles Times.
