(June 2, 2015, 1:10 p.m.) -- Supporters of Feras Morad, the CSULB-bound debater fatally shot by an LBPD officer who encountered him after he ingested a hallucinogenic mushroom(s), plan a rally in downtown Long Beach on June 4 at 4 p.m. in Lincoln Park [next to City Hall/Main Library.]

On the Facebook page "Justice for Feras," the following event text is visible today (June 2):

[Justice for Feras Facebook text] There have been enough comments, likes, and shares. The Long Beach Police Department has refused to change their narrative despite evidence, has refused to notify the family of the deceased, and has refused to acknowledge our requests for transparency.

It is now time to show the Long Beach Police Department how many physical bodies want the real story heard. We will march from Lincoln Park and walk two laps around the Long Beach Police building.

This rally functions to honor Feras and request honest discourse from a law enforcement agency that has provided anything but.

We will be heard.

UPDATE: In a June 2 update to its release on the officer involved shooting, LBPD states: "The Coroner’s Office is responsible making positive identification and notifying the next of kin. The Coroner’s Office contacted the subject's family on Friday, May 29, 2015." The update follows a May 30 update in which LBPD stated, "The Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office has completed notification of the next of kin. The suspect has been identified as Feras Morad, 20-years-old, of Woodland Hills." [end UPDATE]

Developing.
