OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

An intoxicated man stole a pickup and a shotgun and police escalated a standoff in a vehicle. Police attacked the man with CS gas and state he was “going in and out” and then tasered him. Police approached the vehicle and discovered he still had the shotgun but police found him to be incoherent and began physically fighting him to subdue him. The man became unresponsive and died. An autopsy was done by the Licking County coroner’s office who gave “narcotics use” as reason for his death, making no mention of any effects of taser or physical assault as contributing factors. No independent medical examination can be found.
