I'm sure it was just like this.
Hammond Police said they pulled over a vehicle on the evening of Feb. 10 near Magazine and Apple Street that was registered to someone with an outstanding felony warrant.
McCaskey and a passenger jumped out of the car, and officers chased them, police said.
“The officer says he believes that he was reaching towards his waistband, at which point he tased the subject. Upon tasing the subject, it was Bobby McCaskey," Bergeron said, "Mr. McCaskey hit the ground. Upon hitting the ground, he hit his head.”
I do not like it when, upon hitting the ground, I hit my head. It's happened a few times. It hasn't happened to be while being tased, but I suppose it's probably similar. It's not nice. Of course, I don't think I've experienced any of these symptoms.
McCaskey's family said he's had to have multiple surgeries, including facial reconstruction. Plus, the family said he swallowed his partial teeth plate and is spitting up teeth.
“From the MRI reports, it showed that he had multiple strokes, and his C-Spine was crushed," Hunter said.
The family doesn't know exactly what happened before they found him in the hospital the night of February 10th, but they believe police used excessive force.
“The phone call we got was that he was dead," Hunter said.
The normal things that happen when you fall down and hit your head.
