At 3:37 p.m. DFR took Franklin to a local hospital, arriving at 4:10 p.m. Franklin died at the hospital at around 9 p.m.
While the officers searched Whittaker, he became sick and asked them for help. That’s when DPD requested help from DFR and removed the handcuffs from Whittaker. DFR arrived on scene at 1:55 a.m. and put Whittaker on a stretcher and into an ambulance minutes later. Michael Dennis, a DPD spokesperson, said there were still no updates on the investigations into the two deaths. The medical examiner’s office said it can take up to 90 days to complete an autopsy.
