In video of the April 18 encounter, Frank Tyson can be seen lying motionless on the floor of a bar for more than 5 minutes before police check him for a pulse.

The Canton Police Department in Ohio has released body camera video from the night a 53-year-old man died after he repeatedly told officers “I can’t breathe” as he was handcuffed with his hands behind his back and he was pinned to the ground.

In video of the encounter on April 18, the man, Frank Tyson, can be seen lying motionless on the floor of a bar for more than 5 minutes before police check him for a pulse and about 8 minutes before CPR is started.

In the nearly 36-minute video, police respond to the scene of a single-car crash to find a downed power pole and an unoccupied vehicle with the driver’s side door open and an airbag deployed.

      “Yankees”? The title clearly states that this happened in Ohio, which is about 500 miles away from New York.

          Nope, Yankee means New York. Everyone else is wrong, especially the Brits.

        Clearly a Mets fan. Everyone else is a Yankee to them.

          As a Mets fan and expat thousands of miles away from Shea (fuck Citi), yeah… This is how life feels. Even now.
