Newly released bodycam footage shows a California man being pinned to the ground by officers for five minutes, eventually leading to his death, the
New York Timesreports.
The video, uploaded to the City of Alameda’s YouTube page this week, shows what transpired on April 19 when patrol officers for the Alameda Police approached 26-year-old Mario Arenales Gonzalez. An officer questioned Gonzalez, who had trouble responding. He told Gonzalez he was checking on him after 911 calls came in that the man was “not feeling so great.”
After questioning him for a few minutes, officers then pinned Gonzalez to the ground and told him to stop resisting arrest, adding “It’s okay, Mario. We’re gonna take care of you.” According to APD, he appeared to be “under the influence and a suspect in a possible theft.” Gonzalez then died after being pinned, despite the Alameda Fire Department’s attempted life-saving measures.

A 26-year-old California man died while he was in police custody on April 19.
Mario Gonzalez died after officers in Alameda County pinned him to the ground, facedown, for five minutes. Police initially said a physical altercation ensued after a medical emergency, but Gonzalez s family lawyer called that misinformation.
The body camera footage, released Tuesday, showed Gonzalez on the ground with multiple officers holding his hands behind his back while putting their weight on him. He appeared to be wheezing while officers told him to “please stop fighting us.”
After about five minutes, an officer said to the other two on-scene, “We have no weight on his chest,” and the officer told another to remove his knee from his back as he placed it there.
