B.C.'s independent body that examines all cases of police-involved death or serious injury has sent a team to Revelstoke after a man died last night.
A news release from the Independent Investigations Office says RCMP had pulled over a vehicle linked to a homicide investigation in Calgary after officers believed the driver matched the description of a person wanted for questioning in that case.
The vehicle was stopped just before 1:30 yesterday afternoon and a perimeter was set up as police tried to speak with the man but after five hours, officers moved in and found him suffering undetermined injuries.
He died a short time later and the news release says no shots were fired by police. The coroner has been called to determine the exact cause of death.
