Descripción del sitio
Daniel Joseph Barga, 24. The Cornelius man died April 10 in police custody from "excited delirium" due to the toxic effects of psilocybin, or hallucinogenic mushrooms, according to the state medical examiner. A homeowner told police that a partially clothed man had confronted him outside his Cornelius home in the 3000 block of North Irvine Street and was behaving erratically, threatening violence. Cornelius Officer Mark Jansen found Barga in the backyard covered with blood and refusing to cooperate, police said. Jansen used a Taser to try to subdue Barga, but the stun-gun had no effect. Jansen tried to wrestle Barga to the ground, but Barga reportedly ran. Forest Grove Sgt. Dean Foster and Officer Scott King joined the chase, and the officers used Tasers and pepper spray on Barga, who kept struggling. Barga then stopped breathing while being taken into custody. Medics transported Barga to a hospital, where he later died.
