The man, identified by Italian media as Moroccan-born Abderrahim Fakir, died Sunday after officers attempted to place him under arrest in the northern Italian city.
According to the Bologna police, officers responded to reports of a man behaving erratically and damaging parked cars.
According to Italian media reports, Fakir owned a moving and cleaning business and had a few employees.
"They killed my brother in cold blood, without pity," she said in a message posted on social media.
Fakir's older brother Mohamad told Italian media he was "a good guy who never hurt anyone, and his death was ignoble."
