Description
The family of a man who died after a seizure led to a police incident are reacting to newly released body camera video of the young father's death in northern Indiana.
Rhyker Earl's family called 911 after he had his second seizure of the day Sept. 8 in Jasper County. Rhyker stopped breathing while in handcuffs and being held down by police. He died two days later.
"I just want justice for my brother," said Rhyker's sister, Tara. Rhyker calls for her in the released body cam video.
He leaves behind a 6-year-old son and a 2-year-old daughter.
During a news conference on Sept. 30, some of the video was played showing Rhyker begging for police to release him. 13News reviewed all of the video that has been released.
