Rodney King shot in San Bernardino

By PAUL LAROCCO
The Press-Enterprise

San Bernardino police detectives are interviewing Rodney King this afternoon, after his report that he was shot last night on a city street.

King, the 42-year-old Rialto resident whose 1991 beating by Los Angeles police gained him national fame, told Rialto police last night that he was shot in the area of 5th Street and Meridian Avenue in San Bernardino, just over the Rialto city line.

After saying he rode his bicycle home, King reported the shooting at 11:39 p.m.

When Rialto police arrived at the home, King had pellet wounds to his face, arm and back from a shotgun, said Rialto police Sgt. Don Lewis.

He was taken to a local hospital, but his wounds are not considered life-threatening.

Man, I send in a tip about the Virgina GOP requiring a loyalty oath but this is the kind of thing you put on the SLOG instead? Well, if you think that's more newsworthy...
