How they died

Less-than-lethal force

Gary Strobridge was on the roof of his home. He came down and reportedly began chasing a female neighbor. Officers reportedly intervened and tried to take him into custody under Mental Hygiene Law in order to transport him to a hospital as it was deemed that he was a danger to himself and others. Strobridge allegedly fought with officers, and an officer reportedly shocked him with a stun gun, and Strobridge fell to the ground. Strobridge continued to fight with police, but they were able to eventually take him into custody, and he died.
