Auburn police investigate suspicious death

KOMO-TV STAFF

AUBURN -- Police detectives are investigating the suspicious death of a 41-year-old man at an Auburn residence.

Officers responded to the scene, a house in the 100 block of D St. NW, at about noon Saturday after receiving a 911 call from a neighbor, said Sgt. Dave Colglazier of the Auburn police.

The neighbor told police that he had gone to check on the man at the residence. Looking through the window, the neighbor could see the man lying on the floor inside the home.

When officers arrived, they could not get the man to respond to them, so they entered the house to check on him.

Police found that the man was dead with injuries "not consistent with a natural death," Colglazier said.

An investigation was launched, and is continuing.

The name of the victim was not released. There have been no arrests and there was no word on a possible suspect.
