The police watchdog group Saskatchewan Serious Incident Response Team (SIRT) was deployed to Fort Qu’Appelle after a person went into medical distress while in custody on Friday.
Fort Qu’Appelle RCMP received a report of a breach of peace on Boundary Avenue on Wednesday around 3:15 p.m., according to a media release from the Saskatchewan RCMP on Friday afternoon.
When officers responded, they found a man who appeared to have a minor injury. Officers said the man seemed to be intoxicated and was arrested for a breach of peace and taken into custody for his safety.
RCMP said the man was monitored by cell guards throughout the night. However, the next morning around 7 a.m. when a police officer tried to wake the man to assess him for release, the officer determined he was experiencing a medical event.
