Leon Patterson (23 December 1960 - November 27, 1992) was a 31-year-old man of mixed race who lived in north London and who died in police custody in Manchester, England. == Arrest == Arrested on 21 November 1992 〔(Inquest )〕 on suspicion of having stolen a till from a branch of British Home Stores he was taken to Stockport police station in Manchester. On arrival he told police he was a heroin user and complained of feeling unwell and suffering withdrawal symptoms, which included vomiting, nausea and diarrhea. The police fed his name into the Police National Computer that told them, incorrectly, that he was an escapee. He had in fact failed to return to prison from home leave but this false information affected police perception of him and they are believed to have suspected that his “symptoms” were at least in part a strategy to aid in his escape, and one of the three police doctors who saw him even wrote this conclusion on his custody record. The first police doctor who saw him treated his nausea and vomiting with Stemetil, a drug that the manufacturer says can cause neuroleptic malignant syndrome, a rare but potentially fatal condition. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leon Patterson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
