Man Who Shot Video of Eric Garner in Apparent Choke Hold Arrested, Taken to Hospital



Police say the man who shot the original cell-phone video of NYPD officers arresting Eric Garner last month was arrested Saturday night on Staten Island, and then taken to Staten Island University Hospital not long after for a medical condition.


Police say 22-year-old Ramsey Orta was taken into custody not far from where the Garner incident occurred.


Officers say they saw Orta tuck an unloaded handgun into the waistband of a female on Central Avenue.


He’s now facing charges of criminal possession of an unloaded firearm.


No more details have been released on the medical condition.
