A cousin of Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors died hours after he was repeatedly Tasered and restrained in the street by Los Angeles police, writes BBC.

Keenan Anderson, 31, a teacher and father, died at a hospital in Santa Monica.

Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) have released body camera footage of the 3 January encounter.

It shows Mr Anderson begging for help as officers hold him down.

At one point he can be heard saying, “They’re trying to George Floyd me!” - a reference to the May 2020 murder of a black man in Minneapolis, Minnesota, by a policeman.

A cause of death for Mr Anderson - who lived in the Washington DC area and was visiting Los Angeles - has not been officially determined.
