GARLAND, Texas - Garland police are trying to figure out why a man died after he led officers on a chase.

Police said they stopped 37-year-old Manuel Camacho near West Avenue D and South 13th Street Wednesday because his vehicle did not display a registration sticker.

They said Camacho sped off after an officer discovered he had an outstanding warrant.
