SQ intervention ends with man in critical condition, BEI investigating

A 24-year-old man is in critical condition following a Sûreté du Québec intervention on Saturday night in Joliette.

A 911 call around 6 p.m. led officers to a building, where they found a man in crisis — bloodied and seemingly intoxicated.

The man reportedly collaborated with officers and agreed to be transported to a hospital by ambulance. While being transported, he allegedly started struggling and officers tried to control him, at which point he suffered a cardiac arrest.

He was revived, but officials fear for his life.

The Bureau des enquêtes indépendantes (BEI) has been tasked with investigating this incident. Montreal police will assist the BEI in this investigation.

The BEI is responsible for investigating all cases where a person is killed or seriously injured during a police intervention or while detained by police.
