(Monaca, PA) Early Saturday morning, July 15, 2023, Monaca Police confronted Keenan Anderson on Front Street where he was damaging homes and cars and ranting in an apparent mental health or drug event. Police took control of Anderson with the use of a  drive stun gun. He was handcuffed and placed on an ambulance gurney for transport and possible mental admission.  After police left the ambulance to conduct their investigation, the crew reported he was suffering from a medical emergency and CPR was administered. He was pronounced dead at Heritage Valley, Beaver. Monaca Police turned the matter over to state police enabling them to do an outside investigation. According to DA David J. Lozier, the autopsy performed by the coroner, revealed no sign of trauma. The forensic examination of the lab and other reports will usually take 6-8 weeks, according to the report.  Anderson’s next of kin have been notified.

Any questions in the matter are to be referred to PA State Police 724-773-7400.
