Rodney King, the motorist who became famous after his beating by Los Angeles Police was videotaped, was found dead at the bottom of his pool today. He was 47.
King's tape sparked a three day riot in 1992 that left 55 dead and thousands injured.
The police were called to King's house following a call to emergency services from his fiancee. CPR was performed and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities are investigating but have found no evidence of foul play.
