Critical Incident Video: Chinedu Okobi 10/3/2018.
San Mateo County, California —
Published on Mar 4, 2019
Video chronology of incident.
The San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office announced Friday that the five sheriff’s deputies being investigated for the Taser stun gun death of an unarmed man in Millbrae will not be charged.
Last October, five San Mateo County sheriff’s deputies tased Chinedu Okobi, 36, during an encounter in Millbrae. Okobi, who had a history of mental illness, was unarmed and died during the struggle.
The video released Friday — a compilation of about 30 minutes of dashcam, cell and surveillance video — shows a deputy driving in a patrol car and approaching Okobi, who is walking near a busy road. Wagstaffe said the deputy first approached Okobi because Okobi had crossed the road against the light and outside of a crosswalk. Wagstaffe said Okobi didn’t comply with the officer’s request to talk on a sidewalk and continued to walk in traffic, and the deputy called for backup.
Other deputies responded, and the first deputy warned Okobi he would be Tased. He deployed the Taser when Okobi “continued to ignore instructions” and moved toward the deputy, according to a letter from Wagstaffe to the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office saying the officers would not be charged. In the video, Okobi is seen falling to the ground, asking “What did I do?” and calling for help.
Wagstaffe’s letter says the deputy activated the Taser several more times because Okobi was resisting and was “agitated, speaking incoherently, excited.” Okobi is then seen running across the street.
The letter says the deputy thought the Taser was ineffective and wasn’t sure how the officers could detain Okobi, who weighed over 300 pounds, “given his size and strength.” The deputy attempted to use his collapsible baton because Okobi’s “level of resistance was escalating,” the letter says. Okobi is seen swinging at the officer, which the letter says resulted in a seven-centimeter laceration on the officer’s face.
Several deputies tackled Okobi and attempted to handcuff him as he struggled, the letter said. They also used pepper spray, but it apparently struck an officer. Deputies handcuffed Okobi and put him in a sitting position when medical personnel responded, according to the letter. As paramedics attempted to move him into an ambulance, they could no longer detect a pulse, and saw Okobi had gone into cardiac arrest, the letter said. Medical personnel weren’t able to revive him.
A coroner ruled the cause of death as “cardiac arrest following physical exertion, physical restraint, and recent electro-muscular disruption,” and listed cardiomyopathy — a heart condition — as a contributing factor. The death was ruled a homicide, Wagstaffe said.

Now this is what should have happened with george Floyd. The officers here realised he wasn’t breathing pretty quickly and got help ASAP.
How can you put your hands in the air and fight back at the same time. What an idiot.
He will never get the chance to hurt any innocent person in the future. 🔴🟠🟡🟢
Wang created more of a hazard to traffic than the homeless dude. He's putting way more people at risk by weaving in and out and circling around against traffic. What a douchebag. And the blurb at 0:29 says he "crosses El Camino Real against a red light, narrowly missing traffic " — which is a total lie. Okobi did not in any way shape or form "narrowly miss traffic." He waited for that red car to pass then he went behind it to cross. The light was changing to green anyway so got a little head start, big deal, sheesh. Bullshit stop to micromanage the public. So what was Wang's master plan? Stop a homeless dude with no money to give him a citation for crossing a street? WHAT. THE. FUUUUUKC man!!!!!!
this was racial profiling and then all hell brakes loose and how convenient no cams filming while the scu… where 4 or 5 and him typical soul… anim… no wonder people defend their lives aga9inst those blue scu….
This kinda reminds me of ole George Floyd… wait without the mob.
"Spread the Word of God"
I don’t want to see anyone die but this is what happens when you don’t comply.
Criminal charges????? I would give them all Awards and Trophies!!!!
Why did the police engage in the stop to begin with? A dude walking down the road is not acceptable. He only started walking in the road AFTER the cop tried to stop him. Anyone have more info?
Did not obey commands from police resisted arrest was walking in traffic no one to blame but this looser thug, great job by the police….
Legend has it that Obi Wan Okanobi never punched another cop again.
Ignores instructions from police, runs away from police ,resists arrest, fights police ….â€what did I do!â€
Deputy Wang in the house. If he was in the Army would he be Private Wang?
This is why the Mafia never ever resisted arrest for any reason back in the day. They were smart enough not to fight cops because in that moment you cannot win so might as well comply.
A man who doesn't fit into society will in time be killed by it
What's the cause of death?
like 20 years ago i got a ticket for jaywalking : $ 60
COMPLIANCE!!!!!!
Cops did nothing wrong. Racists only see skin color and don’t about facts, so they ALWAYS assume the cop was in the wrong.
Another death that could have been prevented if he listened & did what he was asked to do. Seriously its not that hard to comply. Nobody is self entitled to not comply with police, its the law ffs.
It would've been too easy to comply.
…Man walking/running through traffic, on wrong side of street, officer chasing him in patrol car telling him to "stop" and "come talk to me". Officers show up in force, get him on the ground..
BLACK MAN: "what did I do?"
EVERYONE WITH HALF A BRAIN: you were born an idiot.
Another "I can't breath!" Guy😂
They need to take the Gracie BJJ classes. This is a disgrace.
A blue shirt idiot
After he was getting smart and punched the officer they basically accidentally killed him
Too bad he wasn't committed to a mental health hospital where he could get needed help… and not be a threat to normal people. Oh wait, California shut down most of it's mental health facilities in the '60s
