The Alberta Serious Incident Response Team is investigating after the arrest of a man led to him being hospitalized.

A release from the province says at around 7 p.m. on March 26, the Lakeshore Regional Police Service was called to a disturbance at Sucker Creek First Nation. High Prairie RCMP were called in to help.

A struggle started when the 20-year-old suspect was being arrested and a Taser was used.

The man went into what the release describes as “medical distress” and he was taken to hospital by ambulance.

He was later airlifted to another hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.
