Indiana man dies after police subdue him with stun gun

Authorities say a northern Indiana man has died after a sheriff’s deputy used a stun gun to subdue him when he refused to drop a knife. St. Joseph County (Indiana) sheriff’s deputies on Wednesday went to a home in Granger, near South Bend, on a report that a knife-wielding man was chasing his wife. A deputy used the stun gun after the man lunged at them. Sheriff William Redman says the deputies cuffed the man, who then suffered a medical issue. The officers and medics performed CPR, but the man died in the front yard. An autopsy was performed Thursday.  (AP)
