An attorney handling things for the family, said his client was neither a dangerous nor an uncivil person. “What we know about Richard is that he‘s a very pacifist man, very calm. We find it very odd what‘s being said about him,” his family lawyer further told NBC Los Angeles. Los Angeles City Councilmember Curren Price’s office said the man who was shot has lived in the city for decades and is a well-known member of the community. Price’s deputy chief of staff Jose Ugarte awarded the man a certificate of recognition two months ago for his citizen reporting in the community, his office said.“
