Los Angeles, California — On August 20, 2022, at around 12:00 A.M., Harbor Patrol Division officers were in the area of West 18th Street and South Pacific Avenue, in San Pedro. They observed the suspect’s vehicle parked in a handicap parking spot in front of a liquor store located in the 1800 block of S. Pacific Avenue. Upon further investigation, officers observed four occupants (the suspect, another male, and two females) inside the vehicle.
Officers had the occupants exit the vehicle one at a time. The driver and a female were detained against a nearby wall of the liquor store. The suspect remained seated in the rear passenger side of the vehicle. Upon command, the suspect exited the vehicle. During a pat down search, a Glock handgun was located in the suspect’s front waistband. The officer promptly removed the firearm from the suspect’s waistband and handed it to his partner.
Officers requested backup. The firearm was secured in their police vehicle and the suspect was ordered to his knees. While waiting for backup, both officers re-deployed to the front passenger side of their police vehicle. The officers issued a verbal command for the suspect to move away from the passenger side of the car. The suspect failed to comply, and instead suddenly lunged into the rear passenger side of the vehicle, turned towards the officers and an Officer-Involved Shooting (OIS) occurred. The suspect was struck in his left hand.
He subsequently dropped a cellular phone and a wallet on the nearby sidewalk and was taken into custody. He was transported by rescue ambulance to a local hospital for treatment for his gunshot wound and is listed in stable condition. The suspect was later identified as 20-year-old Russell Douthit, a resident of Los Angeles. Douthit’s Glock Model 17 handgun was recovered at scene and was booked as evidence. Douthit was placed under arrest for 25400PC-Carrying a Concealed Weapon.

Black people have mastered the art of getting shot by police..It must be a gift or something.
They literally already had him why tf wouldn't u put him in cuffs right away
That is some Robocop precise shooting. Taught Russel a lesson real quick. That hand is probably f-ed up for life, though.
The right to bear arms shall not be infringed…California cupcakes
She’s a attitude. She can’t believe that they are getting into trouble for parking in a handicap spot. You can her when she smacks her lips together
I blame the people around him for making him stupid to try grab at something suddenly when he knew they knew he had a weapon/ weapons
STUPID LA PD OFFICERS….. … WORST POLICE OFFICERS IN THE USA
Not to Monday morning quarterback but I don't think I understand why Russell wasn't immediately cuffed once the gun was felt or handed off. I get backing off since they are outnumbered, but cuff him while he's under control.
Woulda shot him right in his ass reaching like that😂
Im guessing that the results of their combined IQ tests came back negative.
The dude in the grey is now handicapped, so technically they are no longer breaking the law..
Could have had a hundred pounds of fentanyl in the car, been a prohibited possessor with an arsenal, had one or more dead bodies in the trunk, and totally gotten away with their crimes if only they followed simple, basic laws.
Sheesh that was aggressive over parking in a handicap spot. Complete over reaction.
After watching hundreds of these videos, if I was in the back seat, I would get the F out before the racing & shooting starts.
Even if they told me to stay in the car, I would get out with my hands up.
Bang .. im bleeding im bleeding .. no sh*t sherlock
it's funny how big fat slow unathletic people think they are faster than someone pulling a trigger.
Bad boys… Bad boys blown out of their shoes! blown out of their shoes… by the cops, PEW! pew!
So was he going for another gun in the car ?
Russell the guy with 50 IQ🤤🙄
Parked in a handicap spot with no tag? I think they were all mentally handicapped after watching this video!
The skank in the car could use a tune-up.
I’ve never even been arrested before tonight after being felony stupid with the mouthy Chola’s
He's gona sue and win a mutli-million dollar settlement. The taxpayers foot the bill for these idiots.
Why didn’t they put cuffs on the girl? That female privilege is gonna kill.
Bad time to have forgotten cuffs.
It's funny now a day, people just run their mouth instead of shutting their cake hole and doing what they are told.
😂 hahahaa
Any one else look at these videos without reading the title?
Hopefully Russell learned his lesson and those " friends " stop hanging out with dumb with that wanna carry a gun everywhere. Almost got them shot.
He was just trying to grab his diploma and show it to the officers.
Fucking cops today are soo Fucking dumb they just stood their until something happened idiots I miss. 90's cops. They literally could of cuffed him but instead hid behind the door like a pussys
I love how they play victim after doing everything but comply 🤨 & be sketch af
Come on Russ- you're in the crosshairs of a pistol and suddenly you thought you put on the invincibility cloak? Put away the video games and step into reality!
Fire these cops. Shooting someone over a handicap parking. Go catch the real criminals. Bunch of circus clowns
They don’t carry extra cuffs?
Being that this is California this doesn’t apply. But for states where you can conceal carry legally without a permit ALWAYS tell officers you are carrying and tell them where the firearm is located. Then just follow instructions and don’t jolt
💯 the mentality of ghetto people is consistent from city to city. Blatant disobedience, and no regard for the law and despite thousands of examples of people being shot doing the same things that they do they do it anyway. ðŸ‘ðŸ¼
cops freaking out because someone is parked in a handicap spot. They were bored that night.
Don't park in the handicapped parking spaces.
