The Special Investigations Unit has been called in to investigate the death of a 28-year-old Guelph man.
Officers and emergency responders were called to the Guelph central transit station Thursday July 5 around 11:30 p.m. after reports a man was in medical distress.
The SIU says officers began C-P-R and administered naloxone, a medication used to combat opioid overdoses, but the man was later pronounced dead at Guelph General Hospital.
Two investigators and two forensic investigators have been assigned to investigate this incident.
The province's police watchdog gets called to investigate incidents involving police where there has been serious injuries, death, or allegations of sexual assault.
