Uncut L.A. Riot Footage - Reginald Denny Beating / Looting

Taken place at the intersection of 71st and Normandie, semi-truck driver Reginald Denny is beaten without reason for an insufferable amount of time. Date of the incident is 4/29/1992. Thankfully, due to the live broadcast of this footage on the news, Bobby Green Jr. of South Central Los Angeles rushed to the site of the incident to help him out. Denny tried to get back into his truck and drive away, but due to being severely injured after being hit in the head with a blunt object (as seen at 0:12), he wasn’t able to get far because he was drifting in and out of consciousness. Green moved Denny away from his semi, and drove him to the Daniel Freeman Hospital in Inglewood, California. After Denny arrived at the hospital, he had a seizure. His abilities in speaking and driving were greatly affected due to these attacks, and had to undergo years of rehabilitative therapy.
