-Officers slammed me into a fountain soda machine because I was confused about which door they were asking me to walk out of
-Was waiting to be taken away, large black man SCREAMING for help in back of police truck
-They refused his several calls for paramedics
-”I’m dying. I’m dying. Please call help he screamed.” They mocked him
-Detained, booked, given answers to no questions. Then just let out
Oh Christ...
