At about 1pm yesterday, the NYPD responded to a complaint in Brooklyn about a naked man standing on an awning. About an hour later, after he waved a long fluorescent lighting tube at officers, the man was tased...
...and fell to his death.
We have video of the incident, sfw and without the actual landing (don't worry), below:
The man's name was Iman Morales and, according to his mother, who argued with Morales about an unidentified subject just prior to his leaving their apartment to climb onto the awning, he was very "sick." The fall was only ten feet and wouldn't have killed him if he hadn't landed on his head.
Here is amateur video posted by YouTube user ChooseRonPaul; however, we're not sure who actually shot this footage.
Via YouTube.
