一名明尼苏达州邮政工人在狱中死亡,因为警察和监狱工作人员忽视中风症状,引发了120M美元的法律诉讼。 A Minnesota postal worker died in jail after police and jail staff ignored stroke symptoms, prompting a $120M lawsuit.

50岁的明尼苏达州邮局工作人员Kingsley Bimpong的家人提出1.2亿美元的联邦诉讼,指控他在Eagan警察和Dakota县监狱工作人员无视中风迹象后死于牢房。 The family of Kingsley Bimpong, a 50-year-old Minnesota postal worker, has filed a $120 million federal lawsuit alleging he died in a jail cell after Eagan police and Dakota County jail staff ignored signs of a stroke. Bimpong因头痛而离开工作,被拦下,似乎困惑不清,出现与中风相符的症状,但警官怀疑吸毒,没有叫救护人员。 Bimpong, who had left work due to a headache, was pulled over, appeared confused, and showed symptoms consistent with a stroke, but officers suspected drug use and did not call paramedics. 据报告,尸体摄像头镜头记录了他身体状况的担忧,然而他被转移到监狱里,在那里他无人看管地躺了数小时,明显感到痛苦和失禁。 Body camera footage reportedly captured concerns about his condition, yet he was transferred to jail where he lay unattended for hours, visibly distressed and incontinent. 只有在他开始在嘴上发泡时才提供医疗帮助。 Medical help was only provided when he began foaming at the mouth. 毒物学测试没有发现任何毒品或酒精。 Toxicology tests found no drugs or alcohol. 诉讼申诉当局故意无动于衷,Eagan市称Bimpong当时没有显示明显的严重病情。 The lawsuit claims authorities acted with deliberate indifference, and the City of Eagan stated Bimpong did not show an obvious serious medical condition at the time. 由于正在进行的诉讼,达科他州拒绝发表意见。 Dakota County declined to comment due to ongoing litigation.
