It was a bizarre story as we learned of an in-custody death that happened to a suspect who was in the custody of Amarillo Police when he died.  Many Amarillo citizens were confused as to how a person could die for no apparent reason, and some even blamed officers.

Preliminary autopsy results show that the suspect died due to complications from methamphetamine ingestion.

I would speculate that this suspect had methamphetamine on him, and swallowed it to avoid being caught with it.  If that is the case, it was a decision that ultimately ended his life.
