Manuel Ellis: new video appears to show officer using chokehold on black man

New video released on Monday shows a police officer using a neck restraint on Manuel Ellis, in the crucial moments leading up to the African American man’s death in Tacoma, Washington. The silent video, taken by a man on 3 March in a car directly across the street from the scene, appears to show Ellis in a chokehold, struggling on the ground, when a second officer uses a Taser on him. Ellis is then turned on to his stomach, and at least one officer’s knee is put on his neck or back. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jun/16/manuel-ellis-death-police-officer-neck-restraint
