OAK PARK, IL The family of a man who died in police custody last summer is suing the villages of Oak Park and Forest Park, whose misconduct they say is to blame for 27-year-old Dajuan Gates death.
Gates was pulled over for rolling a stop sign on Aug. 22, 2020, at around 4:20 p.m. By 4:41 p.m., paramedics pronounced him officially brain dead. In the time between, captured on multiple bodycam and dashcam tapes, Gates told police he needed help as he suffered complications from being high on PCP.
