Four hotel workers have been charged with felony murder in connection with the death of 43-year-old D’Vontaye Mitchell outside a downtown Milwaukee hotel. The incident, partially captured on video, occurred on June 30 outside the Hyatt Regency.
The defendants, including a security manager, front desk agent, security guard, and bellman, are accused of holding Mitchell down for about eight to nine minutes, resulting in his death. The charges were brought after an extensive review of evidence collected by the Milwaukee Police Department and the medical examiner’s office.
