Meal Deliverer Discovers Man Who Froze To Death

Authorities say a 64-year-old Ohio man whose body was found on the front porch of his home by a meal delivery driver froze to death.

The Akron Beacon Journal reports the Summit County Medical Examiner's Office on Thursday confirmed that Darnell Wilson, of Akron, died of hypothermia.

His body was found Tuesday by a woman delivering food for the Mobile Meals program. The high temperature in Akron reached just 14 degrees that day.

The Jouranl report says Wilson was on his back, his cane and wheelchair nearby.

It's unclear how long Wilson had been on the partially enclosed porch before his body was found.
