Houston drivers demand action as construction causes widespread damage

HOUSTON – A man suffering a mental health crisis died in police custody early Sunday, according to the Houston Police Department. On arrival, officers located a man in his 50s suffering a mental health crisis. While officers were talking with the man, he tripped and fell into a drainage ditch, said Lt. Pavel with the HPD Night Command. Because the man sustained several cuts and bruises when he fell, officers called paramedics to the scene. While officers waited for paramedics to arrive, they set the man down on the sidewalk and at some point he collapsed, said Pavel.
