IOPC investigation underway as stabbing suspect dies after being arrested by GMP
The police complaints body have launched an investigation after a stabbing suspect died shortly after being arrested by GMP.
The watchdog said their investigation remains at a 'very early stage,' and added they will look into the actions and decision-making of police, including the level of force used to restrain the man. IOPC investigators have attended the scene and the police post-incident procedures where the officers involved provided their initial accounts of what happened.
One local resident said they arrived home from work to police 'everywhere' and they were not allowed back into their house. "You could just see blue lights everywhere," they said. "It's absolutely terrible to see."
