The death of Francis Gigliotti, a man who died this summer after a struggle with police in Haverhill, Massachusetts, has been ruled a homicide by the medical examiner.

Gigliotti, 43, died on Friday, July 11 , after he was "behaving erratically" and wandering in the street, according to Essex County District Attorney Paul F. Tucker. Video released by prosecutors in July shows Gigliotti speaking with two officers before running away and trying to enter a restaurant on Winter Street. He is eventually taken to the ground by police officers and can be heard calling for help. He later became unresponsive and was taken to a hospital where he died, according to the district attorney.

The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner completed Gigliotti's autopsy and sent it to the D.A.'s office
