Authorities are investigating the death of a 35-year-old man who twice told police and fire crews he couldn’t breathe as he was being held, face-down, after being handcuffed for several minutes, NBC Bay Area’s Investigative Unit has learned.
“I just kind of went haywire-- I was out there man, getting wasted.”
According to those familiar with the officer-worn body camera footage of the incident, police detained von Boehrens after he attempted to enter an apartment through a broken window. He was then placed face down on the ground outside the apartment as fire crews and the police officer attempted to transfer von Boehrens to a gurney.
About five minutes after being handcuffed, von Boehrens was unresponsive. The battalion chief radios for help, “Code 3, please,” according to the dispatch recording. “I spoke with my son,” she said. “I don't know if he was able to hear me. I was able to say my goodbyes to him. I wasn't ready to say my goodbyes to him. And when they called me and they told me that he had passed away, I fell on the floor screaming. I was absolutely shocked.”
But a fire department bulletin, issued days after the incident, stressed that the department’s police requires that one firefighter “shall be assigned to continuously monitor the patient’s level of consciousness” and other vital signs without being directly involved in the restraint.
