OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On April 24, St. Cloud police officers responded to a parking lot in the 200 block of 33rd Avenue South where a man was possibly using drugs in a car and gave police a false name. Officers then told him he was under arrest. He ran toward nearby Heritage Park with police chasing him. One officer used his Taser. Police allegedly lost track of him. Just before 8 a.m. the next day, a passerby reported him dead on a path in Heritage Park. His cause of death was not revealed by police. It is unclear why despite drones and surveillance tactics, police could not locate him on a path after tasering him.
