4-Year-Old Who Found Dad Dead Of Overdose Thought He Was Asleep
CLEVELAND (AP) - A 4-year-old boy who found his father dead of a suspected drug overdose in Ohio told his mother over the phone that he thought his dad was sleeping.
Nicole Shank says she knew immediately something was wrong with her ex-husband and called 911. Paramedics found 30-year-old Michael Dunaway dead inside his home Tuesday afternoon.
Cleveland police say they were at the home two days earlier for an overdose and were able to revive Dunaway that time.
The boy's mother tells WOIO-TV that she didn't know about the first overdose.
Shank says her former husband was a good father and she thought he had overcome his addiction.
