How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Sanders entered the house of Carlos Mercado, his neighbor, and started a fight. Mercado subdued him until Officer Joseph Cabezuela responded. The officer handcuffed Sanders and left him facedown as he questioned others about the incident. Sanders, who was both physically and mentally handicapped by a fire when he was six, died of "positional asphyxia."
