“The man continued to act increasingly erratically, prompting officers to subsequently remove the man from the vehicle and provide him with medical attention,” a police statement said.
The man was taken to Caboolture Hospital where he later died.
“The State Coroner has been notified and the Ethics Committee is investigating,” the police statement said.
