NYPD suspends, to retrain police officers following death of ashtmatic man while in custody
Buzzfeed cited the NYPD use of force guidelines from 2013's NYPD Patrol Guide, which clearly states that police officers are prohibited from using chokeholds as it could kill suspects. The officer who was seen in the video wrapping his arms on Garner, Daniel Pantaleo, had been stripped off his gun and badge. The fire department has subsequently suspended four ambulance medics. Both NYPD and the fire department are conducting probes to determine whether proper procedures have been made.
