BOSTON (AP) - State and local officials are investigating the death of a developmentally disabled woman who was restrained by police officers at the group home where she lived, authorities said Sunday.
Brenda Ellison, 42, appeared to go into cardiac arrest as she was restrained, according to police. She was taken to a hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Officers went to the home Friday night after receiving a report of a "woman out of control," police said. Health care providers told police they had unsuccessfully attempted to restrain Ellison after she become violent.
