Officials said in a press release issued Monday that first responders headed to the U.S. 2 motel and restaurant about 10:57 p.m., April 16. They arrived to find several people unsuccessfully attempting to provide medical aid to a 36-year-old man.
He was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.
