"We was(sic) trying to pull whatever he had in his mouth back out of his mouth.... Obviously, he was resisting and trying to prevent us from doing that, trying to steer away, and at that time he was tased.''
Police Sergeant Billy Byrd of Panama City, FL explaining to fellow officers on camera what happened with Andrew Grande when they came to respond to a call of violence between Grande and a female friend. It's reported that Grande tried to swallow a bag of marijuana off camera. But the plastic bag got stuck in his throat at some point. Police used a taser gun on him and then forced him face down to the ground. Grande can be seen struggling desperately to remove the object, and police try a Heimlich maneuver, but he eventually collapses, and it appears that he asphyxiates as a result. Grande, 23, is known for appearing in numerous adult gay videos where he used the stage name "Dustin Michaels." (CBS News)
