Police pulled a man over for a traffic stop for undisclosed reasons. According to police, a “scuffle” broke out and the officer tasered the man an unknown number of times. The unarmed man died shortly thereafter. His family disputes the police narrative. "My son would never be aggressive and fight with the law, especially," said Hanna's mother, Leta Jamerson.
