Anthony Lowe Jr. was killed by Huntington Park Police officers on Thursday.

He had just stabbed someone and was trying to flee on his stumps

The officers fired at least eight shots at Lowe Jr, who died at the scene.

His family say he lost the lower halves of his legs recently after an altercation with police in Texas.

Lowe Jr. had just stabbed someone unprovoked, according to the police department, and was trying to run away from two officers on Thursday.

First, they tried to Tase him, chasing him as he ran down the sidewalk, away from the wheelchair he had leaped from.

He turned and tried to hurry away from them, clutching a large butcher's knife in one hand.

A second police car arrived, from which a third cop emerged. Within 15 seconds of the third officer arriving, they fired multiple shots, shooting Lowe in the upper torso.

Once he was on the ground lying on his stomach, they placed him in handcuffs.

'The suspect was tased at least twice by Huntington Park Officers but the deployment of the taser was ineffective.

'The suspect attempted to throw the butcher knife at the officers again, at which time an officer involved shooting occurred,' the LA County Sheriff's Office release said.

Lowe Jr. later died at the scene. His family is now demanding answers from the police department.
