County police were called on Howard for his erratic behavior, standing in the bed of a pickup, throwing rocks, yelling obscenities, taunting officers, spinning, swaying. Police fired their Tasers at Howard nine times for a total of 37 seconds, data shows — far above the recommended limit of 15 seconds. He stopped breathing and died shortly afterward.
