Negligent manslaughter charges have been laid against two Victorian police officers after a man died following his arrest in a car park, with the lawyer for his family saying they had been left distraught by his passing and delays in the case.
Luke Briggs, 35, was arrested in a convenience store car park at Hoppers Crossing, in Melbourne’s southwest, in July 2024. He became unresponsive at the scene and died eight days later at Royal Melbourne Hospital.
