The Douglas County Sheriff's Office says a Sublimity man had an apparent medical emergency while being arrested by police officers who spotted him jumping on cars outside Douglas County Courthouse during the weekend.

Gregory Allen Price, 56, stopped breathing after being Tased and pepper sprayed Saturday afternoon shortly after being released from jail, the sheriff's office said. He died at the scene after efforts to revive him were unsuccessful.

An investigation into the death is ongoing and an autopsy is scheduled for later this week, the sheriff's office said.

Price was booked into the Douglas County Jail the previous day on suspicion of reckless driving after allegedly traveling between cabins and in pedestrian-only areas at Diamond Lake Resort, the sheriff's office said. He was released Saturday after a Douglas County Circuit Court judge determined there was a lack of probable cause to support the accusation.

Two Roseburg police officers were called to the courthouse after Price was seen jumping on vehicles. The reason for Price's erratic behavior is not known.

The sheriff's office said the police officers deployed the stun gun and pepper spray after Price ignored their commands.
