Police action led to man's heart arrhythmia in theater scuffle, Oklahoma medical examiner says

MOORE — A moviegoer died in February because physical restraint by police brought on a heart condition know as cardiac arrhythmia, the state medical examiner reported Wednesday.

The Feb. 15 death of Luis Rodriguez, 44, was ruled a homicide due to the physical struggle and police restraint associated. The medical examiner cautioned that the ruling of homicide doesn’t imply wrongdoing or criminal intent.

I have watched the video and I am just not sure that the man was even alive when they finally sat him up. He had complained about not being able to breath when all the cops piled on him. When they sat him up, there is no movement or sound from the guy. If the cops had not been propping him up I think that he would have flopped back down on the ground. And this all happened because his wife got into a fight with their 19 year old daughter and he was trying to keep the wife from driving off angry. Apparently the 19 year old girl had been giving her parents problems, which will now include the death of her father. This guy did not do anything even close to deserving his death.

The families only recourse might be civil court against the police officers and the City of Moore,
