Deitric L. Williams Jr.

Case # :1312

Age :26

Gender :Male

Race : Black

Date : 07/18/2023

Location : Unknown

City : Conway

County : Faulkner

State : Arkansas

Agency : Conway PD

Officer(s) : Unknown

Cause of death : Medical emergency

Event : Died from medical emergency during police chase

Disposition : No Known charges

Open records summary :

Conway PD said they encountered Williams during a domestic disturbance call reported at the McDonald’s on Oak Street in Conway around 11:44 a.m. where a man and woman were reported to have been fighting in a car in the parking lot. Williams exited the car and spoke to police when they arrived. They asked for his ID and he returned to the car, started rummaging through it and did not exit on command. Police pulled him from the vehicle. He started running. Officers found him behind a residence on Gum Street where he started showing signs of medical distress. He died in the hospital soon after.

Strangely, his autopsy was completed in December of 2023 and his death was ruled "accidental" while his sickle cell trait and alleged methamphetamine in his system were alleged to have contributed. This still leaves the main cause of death undisclosed trauma in police custody. Sickle cell trait is not a lethal condition, merely a trait that can exacerbate sickle cell crisis. He was not reported to be in sickle cell crisis which could be easily determined by lab findings on autopsy. While there was allegedly some meth in his system, it was not reported as leading cause of death. His cause of death was concealed by these findings by the coroner and remains an unknown "accident" while handcuffed in police custody.
