THE Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) is to probe the circumstances surrounding the death of a man being pursued by officers.
The man, believed to be Nigerian, died when he fell through the roof of the Asda store in Bexleyheath Broadway.
Officers gave chase after it was reported he had allegedly indecently assaulted a woman.
Although he has not been formally identified, police believe they know his identity.
A post-mortem examination revealed the man, who died on November 15 a day after the fall suffered serious head injuries.
