Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies shot and killed the half-brother of Robert Fuller, a Black man found hanged in a tree in a Southern California town earlier this month, after a traffic stop in the city of Rosamond on the afternoon of Wednesday, June 17.

According to a statement released by the sheriff’s department, officers planned to arrest Boone, who was sitting in the passenger seat of a blue SUV, as the vehicle came to a stop in an apartment complex parking lot.

The Los Angeles Times has reported that there is no video footage of the incident because neither the officers nor the police vehicles were equipped with cameras.

“This afternoon I had to notify the sisters of Robert Fuller that their half brother Terron Jammal Boone was killed by Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies in Kern County,” he said.

The sheriff’s department announced that several independent investigations are launched at the scene whenever an officer-involved shooting takes place in Los Angeles County.
