By Joe Paraskevas
The mother of a woman who died after being taken by police Monday to a downtown detox centre said today her daughter should have gone to hospital instead.

Annabelle Tom told the Free Press her daughter, Cheryl, 35, suffered from bipolar disorder -- also known as manic depression -- for which she took four kinds of medication.

Tom said she believed her daughter unintentionally took too much medication before leaving her St. James apartment. The medication could have made Cheryl Tom slur her words, her mother said.

"My daughter didn't drink. My daughter was bipolar and she took medication for her bipolar."

Police said they arrested her for intoxication at a St. James convenience store.

Police reported they were called to the store in the 3300 block of Portage Avenue at about 7 a.m. Monday and took the woman to the Main Street Project, a detoxification detention centre.
