Raleigh police release body cam video of Darryl Williams’ death in custody
Raleigh police have released body camera video Friday showing what led up to 32-year-old Darryl Williams’ in-custody death.
According to the Raleigh Police Department’s preliminary investigative report, Williams died in their custody after officers fired stun guns at him three times on Jan. 17.
It said officers were “proactively patrolling” businesses along Rock Quarry Road, and when they tried to arrest Williams for drug violations, police reported he was “combative and resistant” and ran away from officers.
Ahead of releasing the body cam footage, Raleigh police claimed Williams could be heard on the video saying, “I have heart problems.”
Williams later became unresponsive while in police custody, was transported to a hospital and pronounced dead.
Six officers deemed to be involved were placed on administrative duty.
The release of the body camera video comes after the Raleigh City Council voted on Wednesday to create a committee that will look into concerns from the community about Williams’ death.
Prior to that, nearly two weeks after Williams’ death, a representative from the Raleigh Police Department told CBS 17 that the police department had yet to file a petition to a judge to get the body camera video released.
In North Carolina, a judge has to agree to release any law enforcement body camera footage.
