Overview
- Police were called to a laneway outside the Elephant and Castle on West Terrace after reports the man was acting disorderly and damaging vehicles.
- Officers attempted to arrest the man and said he resisted; police said he became unresponsive during the struggle and could not be revived despite CPR by police and paramedics.
- South Australia Police said the arrest was captured on an officer's body-worn camera and that no taser was used during the response.
- The man's identity and the medical cause of death have not been released and will be determined through a coroner's report and the Police Commissioner's inquiry.
- Those formal reviews will examine the timeline, police actions and medical care and could lead to findings on procedure or further action once their reports are completed.
