ASIRT says city police were called to an apartment on Sunday about a man screaming and swinging a machete.
Upon arrival, police told the man he was under arrest for possession of weapons for a dangerous purpose.
ASIRT says the man then barricaded himself inside before coming out holding a machete and a knife.
The agency says the tactical team used non-lethal rounds on the man and restrained him.
It says the 44-year-old man was then sent to hospital, where he died almost an hour later.
ASIRT is asking anyone who witnessed the confrontation between the man and police to come forward.
