Man dies in NY gym fight; officers used Tasers
By GEORGE M. WALSH - »COLONIE, N.Y. (AP) — A burly, incoherent 32-year-old man who rampaged through an upstate New York gym died after going into cardiac arrest when he was repeatedly shocked with stun guns during a struggle with three officers, police said Monday.

Colonie Police Chief Steven Heider said Chad Brothers of Troy had gone to the Gold's Gym in the Albany suburb just before 6 a.m. and was described by witnesses as "annoying" and in a "highly escalated mood."

"He was mumbling things," Heider said. "We're not too sure what the mumblings were."

Soon after arriving, Brothers fell off an elliptical machine, turned up the speed on another patron's treadmill and then punched him in the face. He started toppling 700-pound training machines and throwing 45-pound free weights around the gym filled with about 30 clients and staff.

"It was a rage, that's what it was described as," Heider said.

Brothers, who was a muscular 6-foot-1 and weighed between 225 and 240 pounds, went on to destroy a showcase and entered an office where he threw around equipment, including computers, the chief said.

That was when the first officer on the scene, a woman, confronted Brothers and told him to get on the ground and show his hands. At some point, Brothers threw some boxes at the officer and she knocked him down with a stun-gun jolt just before 6:30 a.m.

Heider said that while the officer was trying to cuff Brothers, he stood up with her on his back, was shocked again and then got hold of the Taser, apparently triggering another jolt himself. Two other officers jumped in and used their Tasers in stun mode at least twice and one of the officers hit Brothers with a plastic baton.

"This was a whirlwind of a battle in a confined area," Heider said. Two wired prongs fired from the first stun gun were embedded in Brothers' chest and thigh, while the other officers used the hand-held devices in "stun mode" directly against his body.

Brothers went into cardiac arrest shortly after he was subdued with the help of two or three patrons. An off-duty EMT performed CPR while an ambulance was called. Brothers died shortly after arriving at Albany Medical Center at about 7:15 a.m. Heider said information was still being downloaded from the stun guns to determine the precise number of shocks.

The patron who was punched was bruised and the two male officers had minor injuries. None of them required medical attention.

Asked if he believed steroid use might have been involved, Heider said it wasn't clear what was behind Brother's actions or what caused his death. An autopsy scheduled for Tuesday morning will include toxicology screens for steroids and other drugs. Police were getting a warrant Monday to search his apartment.

Heider said he believed his officers acted properly, but the use of force will be reviewed.

What the fuck is wrong with your country, the moment that arsehole started causing trouble in a gym here in Australia, there would have been 6 boof heads who would have jumped at the chance for a free sparring session and an opportunity to knock this idiot into next week.  No wonder shit gets out of hand in the states, nobody does shit to stop these idiots.

Perfect candidate for instant sudden death syndrome, bodybuilder who should have a strong health heart dies from cardiac arrest when tazered. Request post-mortem sent to getbig with details of heart biopsy, this will confirm massive structural abnormalities in cardiac tissue (not steroid related)

POLICE RUIN EXTREME WORKOUT IN LATHAM GYM!

As you may (or may not) be aware, unconventional workout regimens are becoming increasingly popular in America, and Chad Brothers was serious about getting ripped! Walking into the Gold’s Gym in Latham at 5:45 in the morning, Brothers showed the girly-men of the Capital District how it’s done – his workout included:
 
-Jumping off of a moving elliptical machine
 -Mixed Martial Arts with an unwilling fellow patron
 -Toppling the universal weight machines (serious lifters never go near those things)
 -Smashing a display case
 -Hurling 45 pound dumbbells across the room
 -Ripping an office to shreds
 -Doing squats with a police officer on his back
 
Haters from the Colonie Police Department arrived under the suspicion that Brothers may have been violating a town ordinance against getting too pumped up.

Thank the lawyers. As my Italian friend said to me after visiting the U S of A, "Dj, your country is a police state. America the free? Yeah, right." And other Euro friends of mine who have visited the States have said very similar things.
