Half brother of hanged man Robert Fuller involved in shootout with police- deceased

A man was shot by LA County deputies is the half brother of Robert Fuller. A statement from a Fuller family attorney late Wednesday night confirmed the man’s identity as Terron Jammal Boone. Fuller and Boone had the same mother.

Robert Fuller, was a 24-year-old black man whose body was found hanging from a tree outside City Hall last week. Officials initially suggested Fuller died by suicide, but the circumstances bear an eerie resemblance to a recent death in nearby Victorville, about 45 miles away: Days earlier, the body of Malcolm Harsch, a 38-year-old black man, was found in a tree outside the city’s library.
