Two police officers from Canton, Ohio, have been indicted on charges of reckless homicide in the in-custody death of Frank Tyson, a Black man. Tyson died following a car crash and subsequent arrest, during which he reportedly cried, 'I can't breathe.' The officers, identified as Beau Schoenegge and Camden Burch, were involved in restraining Tyson, who had fled the scene of the crash and resisted arrest. According to reports, Tyson's death was attributed to a heart attack and cocaine intoxication. The indictment follows scrutiny over the officers' actions during the arrest, which has been described as a disgrace by some observers.
