Homeless Man Dies of Liver Disease
A homeless man was found lying dead on the sidewalk in downtown San Diego on Tuesday morning. Authorities determined he died of liver disease.
The man, who has not yet been identified, apparently made the area of 7th Avenue and Broadway his home. He was found dead at 7:30 a.m., after being recognized by the officers who regularly patrol the region, police spokesman Bill Robinson said.
The man’s death was not associated with the sudden drop in temperatures the night that he died, Robinson said.
