Indiana Family Sues City After DUI Suspect Dies
In late August, police approached a 39-year-old Indiana man sitting in his car at a scrap yard. Police assumed that the “dazed” man was drunk driving, but paramedics called to the scene to treat the suspect after police pepper sprayed him and struck him noticed that he was suffering from a diabetic attack. The suspect went into cardiac arrest at the scene and lapsed into a coma. He died 16 days later without regaining consciousness.
And internal investigation determined that there was “nothing improper” in the arrest, and none of the officers involved will face sanctions.
