    Report summary

    Ryan James Vout, who had paranoid schizophrenia and was apparently unmedicated, stabbed himself in the chest during an attempt by police officers to execute a section 135 warrant on 10 August 2016. He died despite emergency first aid and hospital treatment. The principal concerns were inadequate coordination before his discharge from psychiatric care, the inability to pre-arrange an ambulance for section 135 warrant attendances, and the lack of a formal briefing or risk assessment before officers entered the premises.
