Black Lives Matter protestors have blocked the entrance and exit of a hospital emergency room in Los Angeles as they screeched “We hope they die” in reference to two LAPD officers who were shot and wounded in an apparent ambush in the Compton area of the city over the weekend.

The officers involved in the shooting have not been named, but have been described as a 31-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man and footage shows an as yet apprehended black man approach them as they sit in their parked patrol car before firing several round at them before fleeing.

Both officers are said to be in a serious condition and fighting for their lives but when news broke of the attempted murder supporters of the Black Lives Matter movement rallied at the hospital screaming anti-police slogans and wish death on the two officers.

The BLM thugs also blocked ambulances entering and exiting the hospital endangering other lives with LA County Sheriff’s headquarters tweeting:

“To the protesters blocking the entrance & exit of the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM yelling “We hope they die” referring to 2 LA Sheriff’s ambushed today in #Compton: DO NOT BLOCK EMERGENCY ENTRIES & EXITS TO THE HOSPITAL. People’s lives are at stake when ambulances can’t get through.”

Since the death of convicted criminal and drug addict George Floyd following his arrest by police in Minneapolis last May US police have faced increasing condemnation from politicians, media outlets and celebrities.

This has resulted in increased tensions and the ensuing riots, looting and widespread arson since the death of Floyd have led to dozens of deaths.
