Kris Harrison told investigators he showed his daughter a Glock 9mm he kept in his bedside cabinet after arguing about Trump. As he lifted the weapon, he heard a loud bang and she fell. He said he could not recall if his finger was on the trigger.

@nbcla.com just so you know, we see no difference between LAPD and the feds. When ICE was showing out last summer and the people were protesting, LAPD was shooting reporters and peaceful protesters with “less than lethal” rounds. LAPD are no angels
