These cops should be charged with recklessness and fired, if not charges for attempted murder due to negligence. So to answer your question, with a gurney. It’s pretty damn simple.

​@@OsakaBanchothey could have walked into the van with a gurney on standby and CARRIED the PARALYZED and UNCONSCIOUS man out of the transport van to take him to the hospital. Also, the attorneys believe it to be intentionally done, the officers first question was "Is he unconscious" and after finding that he was began to yank him out by his legs, possibly further injuring his spine and taking away the option to have it fixed.
