Woman died of heart attack during arrest

NASSAU- A woman who died while being arrested by police died of natural causes, according to an autopsy.

Vonchelle Saunders had a fatal heart attack on January 15 at her home on Fritz Lane.

Since Saunders died of natural causes, a coroner’s inquest will not be held.

Police officers went to the home in response to a disturbance. They reportedly met Saunders naked and throwing bottles.

Saunders ran inside the home and allegedly continued throwing bottles at the officers. She became unresponsive after they subdued her.

The entire incident was captured on one of the officer’s body camera.
