JACKSONVILLE, Fla.<\/strong> \u2013 The Jacksonville Sheriff\u2019s Office is investigating the in-custody death of a 32-year-old man.<\/p>\n

JSO said on Friday evening, officers responded to a home on Harriet Avenue in response to a domestic battery. <\/p>\n

Officials said the man was standing in the roadway, and when he noticed the police, he attempted to run away.<\/p>\n

The man tripped while running, and he was taken into custody without the use of force. JSO said after being restrained, he kicked, flailed, and attempted to bite officers while ignoring their commands.<\/p>\n

JSO said the man “displayed signs commonly associated with extreme behavior incidents (profuse sweating, incoherent ramblings, and disassociation with reality) while officers were on scene.”<\/p>\n

The Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department evaluated the man, and he continued his aggressive behavior, JSO said.<\/p>\n

Officers continued their investigation into the criminal complaint, and the complainant told police that they did not want to press charges and they didn\u2019t want him arrested.<\/p>\n

The complainant told JSO that the man had been diagnosed with Schizophrenia and he had not recently taken his prescribed medication.<\/p>\n

The man met the criteria for a Baker Act, and he was transported to a nearby receiving facility, JSO said.<\/p>\n

When they arrived at the facility, officers saw that the man had become unresponsive. JSO said it immediately began life-saving measures and requested JFRD\u2019s assistance. The man was taken to a local medical facility, where he died, JSO said.<\/p>\n

JSO is investigating the incident and is working with the Medical Examiner\u2019s Office, awaiting the results of the autopsy and toxicology results. <\/p>\n
