The family of Mario Gonzalez Arenales, a Northern California man who died after he was restrained by police officers in April, has filed a wrongful death claim against the city of Alameda alleging the officers detained Gonzalez without reasonable suspicion and caused him to die of asphyxia.
On April 19, Alameda Police Department officers responded to reports of a man who appeared to be under the influence and about a suspect in a possible theft, the police department said in a news release. Three officers restrained 26-year-old Gonzalez, placing him on his stomach on the ground for about five minutes before he became unresponsive, body camera footage released by the department shows. He was later pronounced dead at a hospital.
