Metropolitan Police officers were called to High Street, South Norwood, at 1.27am on Sunday.

After gaining entry to the property, officers encountered a 45-year-old man who was “very agitated and was actively resisting against officers”.

He was experiencing a medical emergency and was restrained while paramedics were called.

He was then transported to an ambulance but became seriously unwell.

He later died in hospital.

His next of kin have been informed.

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) is now investigating the incident and the Met’s Directorate of Professional Standards is aware, according to the force.

A referral in these circumstances is a mandatory step when anyone dies or suffers serious injury following contact with the police or while in their custody, the force said.

“I know the community in South Norwood will want to be reassured that the incident was handled appropriately,” said Commander Brittain.

“The IOPC is conducting an investigation to provide that independent scrutiny.”

Commander Brittain also acknowledged the impact incidents like this can have on police officers.
