How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Police were responding to a 911 call for a person screaming. Arriving officers found the man jumping up and down on his red pickup truck while screaming. The man jumped off the truck and went to the driver's side of the patrol car, reached inside an open window, and grabbed a female officer by her neck and hair. There was a struggle, and an officer struck the man with a baton. Another officer tasered him. Finally, they got him to the ground and got him handcuffed - then noticed he was unresponsive.
