OXFORD, Ohio — A Chicago man died Thursday, five days after police
subdued
him with a Taser
outside a bar near Miami University, a hospital spokesman said.
Kevin Piskura, 24, died shortly after 5 p.m. at University Hospital in
Cincinnati, said spokesman
Don Crouse.
Oxford officer Geoff Robinson used the device early Saturday morning as he
tried to break up a
fight, police said. The Butler County offices of the sheriff and
prosecutor
are investigating the
officer's actions.
"We still request that people refrain from rash judgment and wait until
the
independent
investigation of this event is complete, lest tragedy lead to more
tragedy,"
the Piskura family
said in a statement released by the hospital.
Piskura, a 2006 Miami graduate, argued with police after a friend was
escorted from a bar, police
said. The officer drew his Taser stun gun and told Piskura to stop, and
when
he did not, the
officer used the device and hit Piskura in the chest.
Video from a camera attached to the Taser shows Piskura getting shocked
for
about 10 seconds as
he rolls around on a sidewalk.
Robinson, 27, has been placed on paid leave pending the outcome of the
investigation, Oxford
police spokesman Jim Squance said.
Robinson has been an Oxford police officer for two years. He had taken a
refresher course on
using a stun gun a week before the incident, police said.
