    To answer your question on what the cops did:

    Anjelica Lee said. “My dad said to me: ‘Don’t get out of the car until they can fully see you, because they’re going to shoot.’ And after he said that, nine or 10 of them jumped on him, and then they slammed him on the car.”

    She said she could hear her father screaming: “You’re hurting me. I can’t breathe.”

    This is all from the woman’s perspective. But it sure seems suspicious that he had chest pains that the police’s story can’t explain.
