(12/3/10) One month later and Phoenix PD have still not released information on an official cause of death.
Phoenix police have identified a man who fled from police on foot collapsed and died after being caught, police said.
Just before 7 p.m. Friday, Phoenix police responded to a call about a fight near 19th Avenue and Bell Road in north Phoenix.
Once there, they asked the three individuals involved for identification, said Phoenix police spokesman Steve Martos. Two complied immediately.
The third, Oesha V. Reese, 35, fled the apartment, Martos said. Officers chased after him on foot for about six minutes.
After police took him into custody, the man complained he was having trouble breathing, then collapsed, Martos said. Firefighters performed first aid, and the man was taken to a nearby hospital where he died just after 8 p.m.
Martos said it is not known why the man fled or whether he suffered from any pre-existing medical conditions.
