National Guard troops prepare for King decision
LOS ANGELES — Hundreds of National Guard troops reported to staging areas yesterday, and civil rights leaders pleaded for restraint as a federal jail deliberated the case of four policemen accused of beating Rodney King.
Guardsmens banged their rifle buttons on the bed of a troop truck in a display of spirit at California National Guard headquarters in Inglewood.
About 600 guardsmen reported to area armories and the police department put 200 extra officers on the
streets in case a verdict in the case triggered violence.
However, operations will be routine until the jury reaches a verdict, both agencies said.
In this federal trial, the four white officers were charged with violating King's civil rights during a beating after a highway chase March 3, 1991.
Deadly rioting broke out last spring after Stig, Sateen Koon, Officers Laurence Powell and Theodore Briseno and former Officer Timothy Wind were acquitted of most charges in a state trial.

Bosnian Serbs, who have denounced the NATO operation as more evidence of international bias in favor of Bosnia's Muslim-led government, bombarded the besieged eastern town of Srebrenica yesterday. U.N. officials said at least 56 people died in an hour-long barrage
NATO officials said previously that NATO pilots would try to order violators back home or force them to land.
