“We have met her family to explain our role and how our investigation will progress.
“We are at an early stage of our investigation, have gathered initial accounts from the officers involved and witnesses at the scene and started to review the officers’ body-worn video footage.
“There is a mandatory requirement for forces to refer to us incidents like this which result in death or serious injury.
“Our investigation will thoroughly examine the circumstances and whether appropriate policies and procedures were followed.”
