Los Angeles (CNN) -- Rodney King, whose beating by Los Angeles police in 1991 was caught on camera and sparked riots after the acquittal of the four officers involved, was found dead in his swimming pool Sunday, authorities and his fiancee confirmed. He was 47.

Police in Rialto, California, received a 911 call from King's fiancee, Cynthia Kelly, about 5:25 a.m., said Capt. Randy DeAnda. Responding officers found King at the bottom of the pool, removed him and attempted to revive him. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital, DeAnda said.

There were no preliminary signs of foul play, he said, and no obvious injuries on King's body. Police are conducting a drowning investigation, DeAnda said, and King's body would be autopsied.

"His fiancee heard him in the rear yard," he said, and found King in the pool when she went outside.

quick..find a reason why this is a social justice failure by the majority culture and find a reason to blame Bush too.
 
i respect him, cause when those riots broke out, he was against it despite all his own folks telling him otherwise and hating him for saying to not riot or whatever.
is it just me, or does it seem only the poorest of people ever seem to be involved in riots?
 
How long till we hear the cops beat him up then threw him in the pool to make it look like an accidental drowning?
 
And the ridicule has already begun:

Q:
How does an LA cop prevent Rodney King from drowning??

A:
Moves his Foot
 
There probably isn't any surveillance video of the pool area since he's the kind of guy who values his privacy and doesn't like being photographed.
