Community members are demanding justice after a video surfaced showing Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies punching an amputee, Alejandro Hernandez, during a violent arrest in East Los Angeles. Hernandez's family claims he was harassed while washing his truck, but the sheriff's department says deputies recognized him as an active gang member and felt a firearm in his waistband.

Hernandez's family and community members are calling for an end to police brutality and excessive force, alleging a pattern of violent encounters with L.A. County deputies.
