On Feb. 16, officers responded to a call about a “suspicious person” knocking on people’s doors in the 10700 block of Lake Arbor Way at about 7:45 p.m. There, an officer found a man in the roadway. Police said he walked onto a nearby lawn and laid down.

The man was placed in handcuffs so that officers could take him to a hospital for evaluation. He then went into medical distress. A press release from the OAG said officers provided aid and medics took over resuscitation efforts.

He was pronounced dead on the scene a short time later.

The man was identified as 61-year-old Joseph Holmes of Clinton, Md.
