More studies needed in apparent NYPD chokehold death
The medical examiner’s office has not yet determined what caused the death of a New York City man who appeared to be held in a chokehold as police attempted to arrest him.
“The cause and manner of death are pending further studies, and no findings will be released until the investigation is complete,” the city’s medical examiner’s office said in a statement released Sunday.
It was not clear when the medical examiner might issue its findings. A spokeswoman for the office declined to comment further on Monday.
