Police attended Vine Court in Robinvale after reports that a man wanted by police for a number of assaults was in the area just before 5.30pm on Sunday. When officers entered the backyard of a home in Vine Court, they found a 35-year-old man who was armed with a knife.“Attending officers immediately called for medical assistance and performed CPR on the man however he couldn’t be revived,” a Victoria Police spokeswoman said.
The death will now be investigated by the homicide squad and professional standards command, which the police spokeswoman said was “standard practice when a person dies in police custody”.
