Death of Milwaukee Man Under Security Restraint Sparks Calls for Justice

D'Vontaye Mitchell's death at the hands of security guards at Hyatt Regency raises questions about use of force and mental health crisis management.

D'Vontaye Mitchell, a 43-year-old Black man, died after being restrained by four security guards outside a Milwaukee hotel.
Witnesses captured video showing Mitchell pleading for help as guards held him down with their knees on his back.
Civil rights attorney Ben Crump and Mitchell's family demand transparency and accountability, comparing the case to George Floyd's death.
The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner ruled Mitchell's death a homicide, but police have yet to classify it as a criminal investigation.
The incident has prompted calls for the release of all surveillance footage and better training for security personnel in handling mental health crises.
