During a vigil Wednesday evening in Alameda, community members and activists demanded answers in the death this week of a 26-year-old Oakland man.
Mario Gonzalez died in Alameda police custody on Monday after what police termed a scuffle with officers in a small park near the city s Park Street corridor, the Alameda Police Department said in a statement Tuesday. Gonzalez, who police claimed appeared to be under the influence and a suspect in a possible theft, suffered an unspecified medical emergency after officers tried to place his hands behind his back, according to the police statement. Gonzalez was transported by Alameda Fire Department personnel to a hospital where he later died.
