“For him to be tased to death,” said Christine Dallas, mother of Jawan Dallas, 38, who died after being shot twice with a Taser stun gun by Mobile police Sunday. “It’s not right. It’s unimaginable. It hurts. And I want something done about it.”

Jawan died July 2 after being hit twice with a stun gun by Mobile police.The family of Jawan Dallas, a 38-year-old man who died after being shot twice with a Taser stun gun by Mobile police on Sunday, is demanding the city release bodycam footage of the incident.
Mobile NAACP President Robert Clopton said that, while he understands the law, he hopes the Mobile Police Department will release the footage. A struggle between Dallas and an officer ensued, and the officer used his Taser to try and subdue Dallas, but “it did not have any effect,” according to the release, and Dallas then attempted to grab the stun gun from the officer.
According to Dallas’s attorney, Daniels, an eyewitness said Dallas was about 100 yards away from the scene of the alleged burglary call. That witness saw police stun Dallas shortly after he left his vehicle unarmed and later saw him fall backward and call for help as he grasped at his chest, complaining of pain before officers stunned him once more, said Daniels. At that point, the eyewitness says, Dallas stopped moving.
Mobile police said Monday they were awaiting several reports to assist in determining Dallas’ cause of death. They declined to comment on Daniels’ allegations Wednesday, citing the open investigation.
