How they died
Less-than-lethal force
On Sunday around 11:50 p.m., officers responded to a fight call. Lewis, alone, laid in the street, thrashing and yelling. Neighbors said that he had destroyed the interior of his room. Officers put Lewis in a cuff-cord restraint, tying his cuffed wrists to his ankles, then took him to Scott and White Memorial Hospital. Lewis died at 12:48 a.m. Officers did not shoot, taser or strike Lewis. The Texas Ranger Division and Bell County District Attorney's Office investigated.
