At Rest

Less-than-lethal force
Tyson, naked and deranged at his apartment complex, apparently talking to trees before police contact, attacked one of the responding officers by throwing a sundial at his head. The rookie officer required 13 stitches. In response, the two rookie officers tased Tyson 10 times. He died as a result. His mother received a $750,000 settlement for excessive force from the city.
This record exists so that Daniel Mark Tyson, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
