Police also reported a disturbance involving a large group.Long Beach Mayor Rex Richardson said Gonzalez had contacted emergency services as the situation escalated.“When the police arrived, we know that he was detained.

He was on a curb.

He was injured,” Richardson told CNN.Gonzalez's daughter alleged in an online fundraiser that an unmarked vehicle believed to be driven by federal agents struck him while he rode an electric bicycle.Witness Sherman Austin separately alleged that agents used a Taser, broke Gonzalez's arm and restrained him on the ground.

These allegations have not been independently established.Video recorded by Austin showed Gonzalez pleading for medical help while handcuffed.Local police took Gonzalez to a fire station, where his handcuffs were removed, before paramedics transported him to hospital.
