UPDATE: Body Just Found On 94th St. In Ocean City

On Tuesday we Posted the following information:

The body of a 29 year old was just found unresponsive on 94th Street in Ocean City. The preliminary findings stated he died of an overdose.

I have been in regular contact with the Ocean City Police Department and while comments are coming in and even e-mail giving me a hard time for exposing the above information, the cause of death can not yet been CONFIRMED by the State Medical Examiners Office but are confident their findings will be in line with what we originally stated.

To those of you sending in threatening e-mail messages to me as well as demanding I give an apology, you're wrong, you're out of line and I'll apologize to no one. While we're sorry for your loss, don't ever send me a threatening e-mail again or you'll be getting a visit from the authorities.

As soon as we get word from the Medical Examiners Office we'll post it. Until then, the professionals at the scene know what they're talking about.

I understand you were just reporting what you were told, but just want to be clear that he had medical problems and that is why he passed. He had been on dialysis for 8 years. Just want to make sure you know that! His family is going through a very rough time and it just hurt them to see something posted that was not true. Although you were just doing your JOB, I think the family does deserve an apology as nothing nice was said as in "my condolences go out to the family"...it wouldnt of been a problem if you would have simply shown some sympathy. That is all!

There is no name so I would appreciate it if people stopped assuming it was our friend mike in this article. Mike was 26, not 29 and had an illness. He will truely be missed by everyone. I believe these are two separate stories, and if not the "findings" will be proven to be wrong.
