How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Officers were dispatched to an accident at 12:47 a.m., and one of the drivers, Alfredito Mejias, failed to stop and give information and walked away. Officers made contact with Mejias, and he allegedly appeared intoxicated and belligerent toward officers. They attempted to arrest Mejias for the accident investigation and possible DWI, but he resisted. After a struggle, Mejias was placed in handcuffs at approximately 12:50 a.m. Moments later, he died.
