Rodney King, whose 1991 videotaped beating by LAPD officers helped spark riots, was shot while riding his bike in Rialto, police said today.
King was riding his bike home to Rialto late Wednesday when someone fired on him with a pellet gun. King made it home and called police, said Rialto police Sgt. Don Lewis. King suffered minor injuries to his face, back and upper torso, according to police description.
