The security guards at the Hollywood Church of Scientology facility claim that they acted in self defense yesterday when they killed a man who turned up outside their church building with two samurai swords.
Police report that the man who was killed had previous connections to the church. The disgruntled man had two swords that he was waving at the three guards. Fearing for their safety, one of the guards shot him dead with a semi automatic handgun.
The incident was caught on camera so it should be interesting to see if law enforcement officials call it self defense after reviewing the video. Seems a little scary that the Church of Scientology employs security guards who wield semi automatic weapons.
