The death of a 42-year-old Moroccan man as he was pinned down by Italian police in Bologna has sparked protests and a formal investigation, with calls for renewed scrutiny of police tactics. Video of the incident showed two officers and a man restraining Abderrahim Fakir as he repeatedly calls out for help before becoming unresponsive. According to the Bologna police, officers responded to reports of a man behaving erratically and damaging parked cars. In a statement, the police said Fakir resisted the two officers, who sprayed him with pepper spray in an effort to subdue him. CBS News' @saychrislive has more. #bologna #italy
