A similar situation occurred in Rochester NY in March. Police called on a guy who was acting out, possibly due to having ingested PCP earlier. He was obeying the officers commands and had been handcuffed, but was acting erratically by spitting at them. So they put a "spit hood" over his head, then held him to the ground until he passed out and his heart stopped. Nothing about how the police responded is humane.
It's all on video:
