A Staten Island man died about an hour after disturbing cell phone video showed him being placed in a chokehold by an NYPD officer trying to take him into custody for selling illegal cigarettes.
Eric Garner, a 43-year-old married father of six who had chronic asthma, begged officers to leave him alone. But then one of them grabbed his neck, and he repeatedly yelled that he couldn’t breathe as he was forced violently to the ground by several officers.
A man who witnessed the confrontation told the Los Angeles Times the incident has shaken area residents. “People are outraged. They want answers,” he said.
