Police watchdog probing death of man in custody
The police watchdog has launched an investigation into the death of a man who was found unresponsive in police custody. Ellis Rocks was detained by Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officers at the Britannia Hotel in Almond Brook Road, Standish, Wigan, at about 8.35pm on Thursday, the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said. Information indicates the 26-year-old was handcuffed and searched by officers at the scene before being transferred to custody, the watchdog added. Mr Rocks remained in custody overnight and an ambulance was called by detention officers at about 2.30am on Friday after he was seen to be unresponsive and lying on the floor of a cell. After paramedics arrived, he was taken to hospital but he suffered a cardiac arrest en route and resuscitation was commenced. Mr Rocks died in hospital at 7.20am on Sunday. After a mandatory referral from GMP, IOPC investigators were deployed in the early hours of Friday and an independent investigation was declared at 10.18am on Sunday. The watchdog has reviewed CCTV from the custody suite and body-worn video footage from officers involved in the arrest, it said. It has also been in touch with the force about receiving initial accounts from the officers. An IOPC spokesperson said: 'This was a tragic incident in which Mr Rocks has sadly died and our thoughts are with his family and loved ones. 'GMP referred this matter to us, and as he was in the custody of police at the time he became unwell, it is important there is a thorough and independent investigation. We will examine all relevant matters including the interaction officers had with Mr Rocks during his detention and what happened after he arrived at the custody suite. 'We have made contact with his family to explain our role and will update them as our inquiries progress.'

Third Child in Sailing Camp Dies After Barge Hit Boat Off Miami Beach
A girl who was in critical condition after a barge hit a sailboat off Miami Beach on Monday has died, making her the third fatality connected to the crash, the authorities said on Sunday. The girl was one of six passengers, including a 19-year-old counselor, participating in a sailing camp run by the Miami Youth Sailing Foundation, according to the Miami Yacht Club. 'Our hearts continue to mourn with all those impacted by Monday's tragic incident, especially with the passing of another one of Miami's children today,' Capt. Frank Florio, commander of Coast Guard Sector Miami, said in a statement on Sunday. The yacht club said on Sunday that 'now, with the passing of a third sailor, the entire sailing community is shattered by grief.' Gabriel Groisman, the former mayor of Bal Harbour, a coastal village just north of Miami Beach, said on social media on Sunday that his 10-year-old cousin had died. The identity of the girl and when she died were not immediately available. She was one of four children who were taken to the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, where two of them died on Monday after the crash, according to the Coast Guard. The Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner's Office on Tuesday identified them as Mila Yankelevich, 7, and Erin Ko, 13. Another girl who was transported in critical condition to the hospital on Monday has since been released, said Petty Officer Third Class Nicholas Strasburg of the Coast Guard. A fifth child was evaluated at the scene but did not go to a hospital, Lt. Pete Sanchez, a spokesman for the Miami Department of Fire-Rescue, said on Monday. The Coast Guard later said that victim was a 12-year-old girl. The counselor did not go to the hospital, officials said. The Coast Guard said it received a report just before 11:30 a.m. on Monday of a collision involving a sailboat with six people on board and a tug and barge near Hibiscus and Monument Islands. Divers and rescue boats from several agencies responded and pulled all six people from the water, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said. The authorities said they believed that all of the girls were wearing life jackets. The sailboat operator, a person on the barge and the pilot of the tug were tested for drugs and alcohol and the results all came back negative, Petty Officer Strasburg said. The sailboat has been salvaged and removed while the tug and barge remain on the scene, he said. The yacht club said on Tuesday that it was closed until further notice.
