Inquest into death in custody of Steven Nixon-McKellar begins in Toowoomba Cool

The coronial inquest will examine the death of Mr Nixon-McKellar in October 2021 following an altercation with police
...

Police body camera footage was shown of officers Constable Brandon Smart and Senior Constable Simon Giuliano engaged in a five to 10-minute struggle with Mr Nixon-McKellar and radioing for backup.

Which one of you would have an 'altercation' with police and have 5-10 minute struggle with police?

A good old Indigenous name ey?

Anyway ... no consideration on your part as to why this 27 yr old had bought himself to the attention of Police & why he was actively fighting them when the LVNR technique was used on him?

Why is it always blacks who struggle with police?? This guy, George Floyd in the US, Kumanjayi Walker, David Dungay.

Appearing via videolink, Mr Cale told the inquest he had formed an opinion that the LVNR applied to Mr Nixon-McKellar by Senior Constable Tylarr Colman was correct.

"What I saw from footage was the LVNR was correctly used, the effect was quite rapid, and the police response was correct," Mr Cale said.

"I wouldn't know if the person was armed or disarmed, or if there were other people around," Mr Cale told the inquest.

"I would rely on the police at the scene to make the judgement as quickly as possible to use a legal technique."

Dr Rashford said that had the 27-year-old not had other health issues and received the LVNR, it is unlikely he would have died.

He was reported to be driving in a stolen Subaru
with two other men in the car. They took off, and
left Nixon-McKellar behind. Apparently he suffered
from asthma, and may have been affected by alcohol
at the time.
