AURORA, Colo.—Aurora police say a man they shot twice with a Taser has died, but the cause of death hasn’t been determined.
Authorities say 38-year-old Shane Ledbetter became unresponsive after his arrest on Thursday and was taken to a hospital. He died Sunday.
An autopsy is planned.
Authorities say Ledbetter fled from an apartment while police were arresting another man. Police say two officers pursued him into a park and hit him twice with a Taser when he became violent.
Officers performed CPR until paramedics took Ledbetter to a hospital. One officer injured his back and was placed on medical leave.
Police say they later learned several felony warrants had been issued for Ledbetter’s arrest, one for escape.
