Rodney King, famous for a videotaped beating from Los Angeles police back in 1991, was shot and wounded on a San Bernardino street corner late Wednesday.
King called Rialto police just before midnight to report the shooting. According to Sgt. Don Lewis, King was struck in the face and arm -- with what appeared to be pellets or birdshot. When police arrived at King's home, they reported that King and others inside appeared drunk. The man got shot in the face -- he deserves a drink!
King was taken to a local hospital, and his wounds were not believed to be life-threatening.

Oh NO!!! Here comes a sea of idiotic, racists comments! Racists all SUCK!!!! Every last one of them!
i like rodney because he's just an average guy trying to enjoy life and just cause of the color of his skin he gets smacked down by the system.
That's not breaking news. That's the same old, same old.
Can't we all just get along?
lol.....needless to say, he was NOT destined for a life of productivity or success.....I mean he's a loser....everyone knew it back then, everyone knows it now.............the fact is when he was beat excessively by the police it was WRONG, no one of any color should be assaulted by that police for that long and that relentlessly...............no one said he wasnt a loser, he just didnt deserve to almost die at the hands of the cops! ...............he needs like, a job?
Man...he has really bad luck!! I guess we just can't all get along.
They were drunk, and then he got shot.
