The family of Mario Gonzalez, whose April death drew protests and comparisons to the killing of George Floyd, has filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against Alameda police.
The family of an Oakland man who died after police held him down filed a wrongful-death lawsuit Friday, contending officers asphyxiated him during a confrontation that drew protests and comparisons to the killing of George Floyd.
His brother Jerry Gonzalez told the Associated Press in April that Gonzalez liked to get away from their neighborhood in east Oakland — where gang shootings, robberies and murders are relatively common — and go to nearby Alameda, a city on an island with beautiful homes, tree-lined streets and parks.Attorneys for the family of a Latino man who died after an Alameda officer put a knee on his back and neck for more than four minutes, are asking the U.S.
Joshi said he was committed to “full transparency and accountability into the tragic death of Mr. Gonzalez.” Gonzalez “squirmed around in a desperate attempt to breathe, but never attacked, threatened, or violently resisted any officer,” the suit says.
