“Police demanded entry to 48-year-old Denise Stewart’s apartment at 11:45 p.m. on July 13. Stewart cracked open the door wearing only a towel and told the officers that they had the wrong apartment, at which point they pulled her into the hallway and attempted to handcuff her. She lost her towel in the struggle, leaving her wearing only underwear.

Video footage of the chaos shows multiple officers holding the half naked Stewart against the wall, attempting to cuff her, while a crowd gathers around them. Stewart, who is reportedly asthmatic, can be heard saying “oxygen, get my oxygen,” before she faints and falls to the floor. Members of the crowd can be heard shouting “Her asthma! Her asthma!”
