Man gets killed by the Police when he runs into Police station saying his wife was trying to kill him

Authorities are investigating why a 48-year-old man lost consciousness and died just after being detained in the lobby of the Dallas County jail Saturday morning.

According to authorities, Joseph Sheldon Hutcheson ran into the building sometime after 10 a.m., yelled for help, but was placed in handcuffs, lost consciousness and died.

Raul Reyna, the Dallas County sheriff’s office spokesman, said Hutcheson parked his pickup in the crosswalk and ran into the jail’s south tower, yelling that his wife was trying to kill him, Reyna said.

A deputy restrained Hutcheson with handcuffs, “believing that he may be a threat to himself or others until they could calm the man down,” Reyna said in an email.
An eye witness, April Berryhill, who was at the jail to submit a property release form, said she saw one sheriff’s deputy with his knee on Hutcheson’s back and another one with a knee on his throat.

Berryhill said Hutcheson told deputies he couldn’t breathe before they uncuffed him and laid him down on his back.

By then, the color of his face had turned from pale white to pale blue, Berryhill said.
“He came in saying, ‘Don’t be scared of me. I just need some help.’ They just tackled him as if he’d threatened their lives,” Berryhill said. “He didn’t have a weapon. He wasn’t swinging at the officers. He just needed help.”
Reyna said deputies performed CPR at the scene until Dallas Fire-Rescue arrived and took him to Parkland Memorial Hospital.
He was pronounced dead at 11:31 a.m.
The jail remained closed to visitors Saturday afternoon. Investigators were at the scene, with some officers stationed behind Hutcheson’s black pickup, which remained parked on Commerce Street.

Reyna said deputies saw what “appeared to be narcotics” in the truck.

The Dallas County medical examiner’s office will determine Hutcheson’s cause of death, and the findings will be included in the sheriff’s investigation, Reyna said.

A pathetic case of frying pan to fire


Most times when we walk into big malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff.
But the moment we are out of these shops and want to buy banana, our bargaining game gets off to the roof. Poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even takes out her time to explain how difficult it was for her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough.
But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not paying. Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. But because 'half bread is better chin chin', this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain. In her heart, she cries, she's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that 'It's well.
God will definitely provide.'' While you happily chop the luscious banana. Take some seconds out and think about this, guys. Please don't bargain hard with small vendors like this. They do business not to buy designer bags, Gucci shoes but to LIVE and EAT!

If it were a black man that died, people will def want to report it as a police murdered

White people love to apolaud when this happens to blacks. I guess they're next. Rotten racist cops are running out of blacks to kill.
