In-custody death prompts investigation by police watchdog

WINNIPEG -- The death of a man in police custody has prompted Manitoba’s police watchdog to launch an investigation.

The Independent Investigation Unit of Manitoba requested a civilian monitor from the Manitoba Police Commission to help with the investigation into the death of a 54-year-old St. Andrews, Man., man.

The IIU said that on Monday around 1:30 a.m. Selkirk RCMP officers took a man into custody from his home in the Rural Municipality of St. Andrews, after receiving a call for service. RCMP told the IIU the man was taken into custody without incident and brought to the Selkirk detachment.
