"?The brother of former Aston Villa footballer Dalian Atkinson has said that the 48-year-old had 'throttled' his father before being tasered multiple times by police officers - dying shortly afterwards.
His 'devastated' brother Kenroy told The Sun that Atkinson had been undergoing dialysis for kidney failure three times a week, leaving him in a depressed state.

"My brother had lost it. He was in a manic state and depressed - out of his mind and ranting. He had a tube in his shoulder for the dialysis and he had ripped it out and was covered in blood.
"He got Dad by the throat and said he was going to kill him. He told Dad he had already killed me, our brother Paul and sister Elaine and he had come for him. He was not in his right mind. We are all devastated. Our family is heartbroken."
A witness to the incident has raised questions over the police's conduct in the death - with neighbour Paula Quinn telling "?Buzzfeed News: "He was staggering, and as he staggered towards them they opened fire with the taser and he fell to the ground like a lead balloon.

"I could actually hear him hit the ground, and as he hit the ground the two officers just piled in on him and started kicking 10 bells out of him. That probably went on for a minute or two "? it seemed quite long at the time, everything appeared to be happening in slow motion."?
Quinn claimed to have a 'birds-eye view' of the incident from her home on the third storey of a house across the street, adding: "I don't know if he was perhaps inebriated or something but he certainly wasn't threatening [when outside the house].
"I can still hear the boots kicking him, I can still hear it. It makes me feel quite sick."?
