Police confronted a man about 3 p.m. and attempted to arrest him. Police were in the block serving a search warrant for drugs on a home when they saw 31-year-old Avion Cotton drive up and approach the targeted home. As police approached him, Cotton fled on foot and began "to eat an unknown white substance." He became "physically distressed" and died a short time later.
