At Rest

Less-than-lethal force
Deputies responded to a report of a man damaging property a gas station. They pepper-sprayed him at least once, and he allegedly tried to escape. They finally got him under control after "force was used to overcome his resistance" and got the subject in the patrol car when the man had a medical emergency and became unresponsive. He died soon after at the hospital.
