Whittier resident Joshua Rigsby tells the story of his community following the February shooting of a police officer.

Recently our live events team launched a live personal storytelling series -- we're calling it "Unheard LA" ... Hidden stories of Southern California.

It's a three-part series of live shows in different venues around our sprawling and too-often disconnected metropolis. 

Today we heard from Joshua Rigsby. He lives in Whittier and shared his thoughts about his community the day after police officer Keith Boyer was shot and killed.
