A man died in police custody in Croydon after being found unresponsive in his cell early Friday morning. Arrested earlier that week for failing to appear in court on drunk and disorderly charges, he received medical checks while detained. Officers responded immediately, but he was pronounced dead before 2 AM. The Metropolitan Police are fully cooperating with an independent investigation led by the IOPC, which will examine every detail from arrest to death. Police have extended their condolences to the family and pledged full support for the inquiry.
