GREENFIELD, Ind. (WISH) — The family of an Indianapolis father who died after being tased by Greenfield police this week is asking for justice and says he didn’t have to lose his life.
A Greenfield police officer deployed a Taser on David Donelli during a foot chase Tuesday outside a Home Depot. Donelli was being pursued as a suspect connected to a stolen vehicle. He fell after being tased and died at a hospital.
Holiday cheer has turned to sorrow in Stephanie Donelli’s household.
“It’s not the same. All of us are falling apart because of this,” said Stephanie Donelli, David Donelli’s wife.
