We brief you on what you need to know about L.A. today.

The violence erupted after a jury acquitted four LAPD officers charged with the use of excessive force and beating of motorist Rodney King. It lasted for five days through May 4th. As Take Two looks to cover this period of LA history, we want to know what questions you still have. Please let us know here, and thanks.
