Ex-NFL star involved in break-in dies in police custody after medical emergency
Oakland police confirmed that former NFL running back Doug Martin was involved in a break-in at a home before suffering a medical emergency. The former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders star died while in police custody on Saturday."Prior to his death, Martin was involved in a break-in at a residence in Oakland," the Oakland Police Department said in a statement.
Authorities said officers were called around 4:15 a.m. Saturday to a home in the 11000 block of Ettrick Street following reports of a break-in. Shortly after, police received a second report of a person "experiencing a medical emergency" at the same location.
When officers arrived, they found Martin inside the residence. According to OPD, officers attempted to detain Martin, and a brief struggle ensued.
"After being taken into custody, Martin became unresponsive," the department said.
Paramedics were called to the scene, and Martin was taken to a local hospital, where he later died.
The cause of Martin’s medical emergency remains unknown. The police department said its Homicide Section and Internal Affairs Bureau are investigating, along with oversight from the Oakland Police Commission, the Community Police Review Agency, and the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office.
All Oakland police in-custody deaths are automatically investigated by the Homicide Section, that does not mean a homicide occurred.
The officers involved in the incident have been placed on paid administrative leave, per department protocol.
