A black woman has died in the USA after being put in a police car without the rear door being shut properly and then falling out.
Brianna Grier was lifted into the vehicle in handcuffs but officers in Georgia did not put a seatbelt on her.
Now footage of the incident has been published, with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation confirming that the deputies who put Brianna in the car to take her to the Hancock County Sheriff’s Office failed to close the rear passenger door before driving away. But prominent civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who is representing her family, said Grier was taken into custody after a mental health crisis.supports HTML5 video
