Riots and protests following the beating of Rodney King
Los Angeles, California, experienced a series of riots and civil disturbances from April 29 to May 3, 1992. Civil unrest began in South Central Los Angeles on April 29, after a jury acquitted four officers of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) charged with using excessive force in the arrest and beating of Rodney King. The incident, which had been videotaped by George Holliday, who was a bystander to the incident, was heavily reported on by various news and media outlets, such as CNN. The rioting took place in several areas in the Los Angeles metropolitan area and throughout Orange County, California, as thousands of people rioted over six days following the verdict's announcement.
