MINGO, WV — Last week, Jerry Maynard of Mingo County was assaulted by a police officer after he called 911 for help because he thought he may have been having a heart attack. The police officer who responded to the call can be seen on surveillance video violently pushing the man to the ground, and he had also allegedly threatened to kill the victim as well.
Maynard has a heart condition, and last Thursday he began to experience chest pain and feared that he may have been having a heart attack. Maynard immediately called 911 and waited for them to arrive. When paramedics got to his house to check on him, they found that his vitals were normal despite his symptoms.
The paramedics quickly left, hoping for the best. Later on in the evening, Maynard began to get chest pains again, and called 911 a second time to be sure that nothing was wrong.
However, the second time that an ambulance showed up to Maynard’s house it was escorted by two police officers.
