He has been described by his friends as a “neighborhood peacemaker” and as a generous congenial person.

On July 17h 2014, Eric was confronted by two police officers that used a chokehold technique (banned by the NYPD) and wrestled him to the ground. Eric lost consciousness and layed down for 7 minutes before an ambulance arrived. He was pronounced dead soon after.

Remember his name.
While on the ground Eric Garner repeated the words : “I can’t breathe” 11 times before losing consciousness.
