He was charged with receiving stolen property and obstructing official business. On March 24, correctional staff found Black unresponsive in his cell. Upon attempting to assist him, Black reportedly became combative, leading to the use of force, including a taser and pepper spray, to subdue him. Later, Black placed in a restraint chair. He subsequently went into cardiac arrest, was transported to a hospital, and was pronounced dead on March 26. The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office has requested an independent investigation by the Dayton Police Department. Black's family has also initiated an independent investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death.

Arkansas State Police chased a white Dodge Ram after the driver, Torkilo Hambrick, failed to stop for a traffic violation near mile marker 173. Police escalated the chase along Interstate 40 at speeds exceeding 120 miles per hour. Near mile marker 191, an Arkansas State Police trooper conducted a PIT maneuver—a tactic known to be potentially lethal at speeds above 35 mph—causing the truck to overturn and crash. Laterrika Woods, the 29-year-old sister of Memphis rapper Big Boogie, was a passenger in the vehicle. She was ejected during the crash and died at the scene. Two other passengers were seriously injured. Experts have long warned that PIT maneuvers at speeds above 35 mph carry an extreme risk of fatality, and at 100+ mph, the probability of a deadly outcome is considered astronomically high.
