Police in Prince Albert say they’re hoping an autopsy will shed more light on how a 16 year-old teenager died while in custody.
The youth had been taken to the Prince Albert Youth residence on September 12th from the Big River detachment.
He made a court appearance on September 13th.
But it was on the 16th that something went wrong.
He was taken to a clinic for undisclosed reasons before being returned to custody.
Two days later he made another court appearance and was then taken to hospital later that night.
He died in the early morning hours of September 19th.
Police say they don’t believe the death was suspicious but they are reviewing his time in custody.
