OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
A woman called 911 and told the dispatcher that she saw an unhoused man acting "a little aggressive" and walking back and forth along the shopping strip, "yelling at himself" and "hitting himself." Police arrived and saw the man described walking through the shopping center. A Phoenix police cruiser tried to flag the man down. From a distance, officers saw the man stumble and fall into a brick landscaping wall near Union Hills Drive. Edited BWC footage shows one of the officers telling the man to stop as he has his hand on top of a wall having his arms pulled down, being ordered to sit down. Two officers wrestled him down. They then picked him up, cuffed him and walked him over into the shade of a nearby storefront. The unhoused man became unresponsive and died.
