For Immediate Release: June 4, 2023

The Alexandria Sheriff’s Office and the Alexandria Police Department are investigating the in-custody death of a local inmate at the William G. Truesdale Adult Detention Center.

On June 4, just after 4 p.m., an inmate collapsed in the dayroom of a housing unit after experiencing an apparent medical emergency. A deputy immediately called for assistance from the jail’s medical staff and both initiated life-saving measures. Medics from the Alexandria Fire Department responded and continued treatment, but the patient was pronounced deceased at 4:56 p.m.

The deceased is Glenn W. Eubanks III, a 33-year-old Alexandria man. He has been in custody since April 12, 2023.

Because this is an in-custody death, the Alexandria Police Department is conducting the death investigation. The Sheriff’s Office will conduct a review of the incident to ensure all policies and procedures were followed.
