Rochester, N.Y., officers involved in Daniel Prude's death suspended

The mayor of Rochester, N.Y., on Thursday suspended the officers involved in the death of Daniel Prude, a Black man who died from asphyxiation after officers put a hood over his head as he kneeled on the ground, handcuffed and naked.

Mayor Lovely Warren said at the time of Prude's death, she was only told by the police chief that he had died of a drug overdose.

Prude's family held a news conference on Wednesday and released police body camera video obtained through a public records request that captured his fatal interaction with the officers.

Prude had been taken to a Rochester hospital for a mental health evaluation about eight hours before the encounter that led to his death. He was released back into the care of his family and then abruptly ran into the street and took off his clothes.

This is a breaking news story. More to come.
