Daniel Prude was a 41 years old African-American man.

In 2020, during his arrest, an officer used his body weight and hands to press Prude’s head into the pavement,
while a 2nd officer put his knee on Prude’s back, and a 3rd officer held his legs.

Prude said: “You’re trying to kill me”.

After a couple of minutes, one of the officers noticed that Prude had been vomiting and
his chest compressions have stopped.

He was placed into an ambulance, he was declared brain dead.

They took him off life support a week later.
He was pronounced dead that day.
