GREEN BAY - Green Bay police have identified the man who was found dead Monday outside his east-side home.
Police believe Brian L. Hicks, 38, died of environmental hypothermia due to prolonged exposure with inadequate clothing. Neighbors told FOX 11 they saw Hicks’ body barefoot and without a coat. Overnight temperatures Sunday night and Monday morning were below zero degrees.
Investigators ruled out trauma or foul play through their examination
Preliminary toxicology results indicate that alcohol was a factor in Hicks’ death, police said, although complete lab results are not expected for about two weeks. Police are still trying to figure out exactly where Hicks was in the hours leading up to his death. His vehicle was found at a bar on University Avenue in Green Bay.
Hicks’ body was found just before 8 a.m. Monday outside his home on the 1700 block of East Shore Circle. He lived alone.
