Patrick D. Ennis

How they died

No

Ennis had displayed bizarre behavior before officers for a disturbance, police said. Police found Ennis standing at a stair railing, clenching his fists. Officers told Ennis to place his hands behind his back. At first he cooperated, then he returned his hands to the front of his body. Officers forced the cuffs on him. At that point, Ennis appeared to have difficulty breathing. An officer removed the handcuffs and began CPR. Paramedics took him to a hospital where he died.
