A police official said at the time, “Officers observed a 42-year-old male, unconscious and unresponsive.” The man was declared dead at the scene. The official added that the cause of death would be determined by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME.)


On October 24, Mark Desire, the assistant director of forensic biology at the OCME said of the death, “Undetermined cause and manner due to being in a decomposed state and lacking any evidence of injuries.”



On numerous occasions the NYPD was asked about a police radio transmission where an officer was heard saying that the deceased was found hanging from a tree, but the NYPD never responded to the question.


Desire discounted the radio transmission, telling the Bronx Voice, “This person was not found hanging (or anything resembling that.) The deceased was found laying in a wooded area.”
