Mob Attacks Los Angeles Policeman

Patrolman Perry, of the police force of Los Angeles, arrested a dangerous Mexican agitator and criminal on August 11. A mob of 400 infuriated Mexicans charged the officer, to take the prisoner from him. The leader of the mob placed the muzzle of a revolver in Mr. Perry's face and demanded the surrender of his charge; but the officer was too quick for the Mexican, and shot first, killing him instantly.
