Buffalo Common Council held a hearing after a man died in police custody three weeks ago and as a federal probe continues into pepper spray use. Loretta Renford of Concerned Citizens Against Police Abuse urged stronger controls and action. In a separate health update, two HIV infections linked to Nashawn J. Williams have led to 16 cases in western New York and at least 10 NYC partners tested positive, prompting calls for stricter reporting and penalties.
